A member asked:

Had an u/s today and md stated i had lots of follicles ... what exactly does this mean if i am ttc? multiple birth in the cards?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe: Having a lot of follicles can sometimes mean you would have multiples. Your age increases your chance of multiples, and a family history would as well. Most important lots of follicles means that the chances of pregnancy are hopefully good.
