Ovulate twice?

Question

When I did my ultrasound to measure follicles I had 1 follicle at 15.5mm and another at 12.5mm that same afternoon I got a positive opk. Would both follicles ovulate? Or just the 15.mm one? What happens to the 12.5mm one? Could it have ovulated at a different day?

Answer

Hmmm it could go either way. Typically just "naturally" the larger follicle becomes "dominant" and will continue to grow and then ovulate and the other will not....but since you are measuring follicle size, I assume you are taking either clomid or femara, in which case they will probably both ovulate. I was taking femara, my last cycle I had 1 follicle that was a good size and would definitely go and one that was smaller but not my too much.....well they both ovulated and I'm 7.5 weeks pregnant with twins!!! Not sure if the small one caught up and went the same day as the large one or of it was a little later...and the trigger shots are supposed to cause ovulation in 12-24 hours.....on pregnancy ultrasound one baby was measuring 2 days smaller, but the tech said that was pretty common .....good luck!!!!
