Interpreting Ultrasound Results: What to Expect

Your doctor will assess follicle size. Typically, follicles measuring 16-20 mm suggest maturity, ready for potential ovulation. Smaller follicles indicate further growth is needed.

Multiple follicles (more than one) are common on Clomid, but don’t guarantee twins. The number of mature follicles influences the probability of multiple pregnancies.

Endometrial thickness is also measured. A lining of at least 7-8 mm suggests readiness for implantation. A thinner lining may indicate a need for further monitoring or treatment adjustments.

Here’s a simple table summarizing key ultrasound findings:

Measurement Ideal Range Implications
Follicle Size (mm) 16-20 Mature follicle, ready for ovulation
Follicle Count Varies Higher counts increase chances of multiple pregnancies
Endometrial Thickness (mm) 7-8 or greater Adequate for embryo implantation

Your doctor will explain the results in detail, considering your individual circumstances and treatment goals. They will guide you based on the ultrasound data.
