Scan for Eggs
Last Friday, my wife and me went to the clinic for check up. It has been three month since she overdue.
Unfortunately, the the test reveal that she is still not pregnant. However, based on the doctor, this is possible due to some hormon imbalance. We actually try for 3 type of test, i.e. urine test, ultrasound scan and also blood test. however, all of them come out negative. Too bad.
Having said that, there were something that I would like to share. With using ultrasound test, we can see that my wife having nearly mature egg! The size is about 10mm in diameter, it is very round and seem very pretty.
Based on the doctor, it is a healthy egg. From my uneducated guess, I think this egg is big and healthy because it was three month since my wife take folic acid and take care of her health. The doctor also said that the egg should be matured within one week, and ask us to visit her again if she is overdue in the month of January.
My wife actually always complain that she feel pain in the lower abdomen (the same place she can saw the eggs. I guest if the egg is big, she will feel a bit painful especially if the egg is matured and ready to ‘go out’ from the ovaries. Today is monday and she mention that she didn’t feel the pain anymore. I think the egg is out and ready!
I think for a women who didn’t have normal period, she should see a doctor and ask for this test instead of buying ovulation test kits and test by themself. this is because, by seeing a doctor, the doctor can advice about this and she also can see the egg physically if the egg is ready, nearly ready or if it is not so perfect, which the doctor can actually do something about it.
