Many women start the journey of preparing for pregnancy after getting married, and in order to successfully prepare for pregnancy, it is necessary to calculate the ovulation period, understand when the follicle matures, and when is the most suitable time for sexual intercourse. So, under normal circumstances, how long does it take for the follicle to rupture after maturity?
Under normal circumstances, when the diameter of the follicle develops to over 18 millimeters, it will gradually mature over time. Between approximately 22 millimeters and 25 millimeters, the follicle will gradually rupture and begin releasing eggs. If the follicle does not rupture, it indicates that atrophy may have occurred or the follicle itself is underdeveloped, so it cannot mature and rupture. Without rupture, the egg cannot be released, and the sperm cannot combine with the egg to form a fertilized egg.
If you want to conceive faster during the preparation period, you can monitor the ovulation process through B-ultrasound or ovulation test strips. Once the follicle matures and ruptures, you can immediately arrange for sexual intercourse, which increases the chances of conception. If poor follicular development or immature follicles are found during the monitoring process, ovulation inducing drugs can be taken under the guidance of a doctor before continuing to monitor ovulation.
However, because everyone's physical condition is different, even taking ovulation inducing drugs cannot promote follicle development in some women. In this case, it is necessary to carefully examine the body and treat according to the cause.
