Please tell how far will it be successful? when can I expect the day of ovulation....Plz help....I am very worried
Welcome to Chat Doctor Once your cycles are regular you can plan for pregnancy. Since you are on Metronome, ovulation can be expected 14th day prior to next expected period. You can expect ovulation on 14th day of a 28-day regular cycle. You may have unprotected sex on 13th, 14th, 15th, 16th day prior to next expected period for best chances of pregnancy. Best is to get ultrasound monitoring of your dominant follicle in the ovaries. By 14th day prior to next expected period if its size is 18-20\u00a0mm it should ovulate and that is when unprotected sex can be done for high chance of pregnancy.
