I'm currently undergoing a follicular study, and today is day 13 my right ovary has follicles sized 25x20 and 24x19, while the left has 26x20 and 25x19. The doctor gave me HCG 10,000, and I've started feeling pain. My left tube is disconnected from a past infection and surgery. Is it possible for both ovaries to rupture follicles this cycle, or does only one ovary typically release eggs per cycle? Could both ovaries rupture?
