My gynecologist has asked me to undergo a follicular study. I have taken four scans starting from the 5th day of my menstrual cycle. The scan on the 13th day reported the right follicle as 26 mm and the left follicle as 12 mm. How long will it take for the follicle to rupture? Is there any problem with my report?

A follicle size of around 18 to 24mm is usually ideal for rupture. Since your right follicle is already 26mm, it may rupture anytime in the next 24 to 48 hours. You can continue monitoring with your doctor. This is not abnormal and is commonly seen in ovulation tracking.

Question

Respected Doctors, please interpret the report for me. Do I have any serious problem? My report says both the ovaries appear normal in size but show multiple small follicles with no dominant follicle in either ovary. No adnexal mass is seen. No free fluid is seen in the abdomen or pelvis. No mass, lump, or collection is seen. No abnormally dilated bowel loops are seen. Aorta and IVC are normal in caliber. Both psoas muscles are normal. Impression: possible PCOD. Suggestion: hormonal correlation.

Question

I had acne in my school days which got treated and cured but after five years I started having acne again. In the beginning it was one or two but later it got worse with black spots. The acne I get are small bumps and sometimes pus filled but not painful yet they leave marks and scars. My blood report shows neutrophils 78 percent. I also have a family history of acne. I have been using many products like serums vitamin C and niacinamide but they make my skin sensitive. What can be the cause?
