A member asked:
When i ovulate am i always releasing a mature follicle?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not necessarily: From ultrasound and hormone testing during fertility cycles, some women do not fully mature their follicles prior to release. This is one of the reasons for some fertility difficulties in women.
