Doc has suggested follicular study this cycle since we are trying to conceive. Im a little nervous about all the scans matlab will it affect anything? Anyone who has done it?
I felt quite nervous during my first follicular study, but the clinic staff was so gentle. When we finally conceived after that cycle, all that anxiety was totally worth it!
Follicular study is very safe and highly effective for tracking ovulation. It's just internal or external scans to see egg growth. Many couples go through this, so don't worry at all.
My doctor explained that follicular study only uses normal ultrasound waves, which have zero radiation. It is totally safe and just helps in timing the intercourse perfectly for conception.
I was also suggested to do this by my doctor and I felt a bit shy about it initially. But hearing that it is safe and normal makes me feel much more comfortable.
It is a very standard and safe procedure. Just make sure you choose a clinic close to your home or office because you have to visit every alternate day for the scans.
Yes, it is completely safe as it is just a series of simple ultrasounds. My family was a bit hesitant about too many scans, but I trusted my doctor and it really helped us conceive.
