Expert Interpretation
This USG follicular study (day 14, dated 16-Aug-2025) describes a uterus with normal echogenicity and a regular endometrium measuring 6.1 mm. Both ovaries show multiple small peripheral follicles, with antral follicle counts of about 8–10 on the right and 10–12 on the left. There is no free fluid in the pouch of Douglas. Limited information was available about your infertility duration and any treatment plan, so this interpretation focuses only on the ultrasound findings reported.

Questions Patients Often Ask
What does the endometrial thickness (6.1 mm) mean on day 14?
Your report notes a regular endometrium measuring 6.1 mm on day 14. This describes the uterine lining thickness at that point in the cycle, but the report does not provide a direct clinical conclusion or comparison to a reference range.
What are antral follicle counts (AFC) of 8–10 (right) and 10–12 (left)?
AFC refers to the number of small follicles seen on ultrasound. Your report shows about 8–10 follicles on the right ovary and 10–12 on the left, along with a pattern of multiple small peripheral follicles.
Does the report mention a dominant follicle (>1 cm)?
For the right ovary, it states “No DF” with a largest follicle measuring approximately 8.1 x 6.2 mm; for the left ovary, it states “No DF.” The report does not explain the clinical significance of “No DF”.
Is there any free fluid in the pelvis?
No. The report states there is no free fluid in the pouch of Douglas (POD).
What does “USG REPORT - FOLLICULAR STUDY (REPEAT)” indicate?
It indicates this ultrasound was performed as a repeat follicular study, and your report specifies it was done on 16-Aug-2025 during day 14 of the cycle.
