[|Human|] hello, i had follicle scans for 4 days and had 5 follicles of sized very good. and my doctor gave ovigyn injection for follicle rupture. next day i got rupture. and after that i had 3 times intercourse wit husband. how long should i continue to do so? and what about the other 4 follicle will they also rupture?
[|AI|]  You seem to be on the right track. I would have appreciated if you had mentioned the size of the follicle; however, since the doctor has given injection to induce ovulation, the size must be around or more than 18 mm. The life of the ovum or the unfertilized egg is 24 hours. It takes up to 36 hours for the follicle to rupture after the injection, however it may rupture earlier also. So considering the life of ovum, intercourse up to 72 hours is fruitful, not after that. Remember that the life of sperms is up to 72 hours. So if at all this cycle goes waste, from next time try to start the intercourse about 4 days prior to the expected ovulation or injection origin and continue up to 48 hours after the ovulation (confirmed by ultrasonography). Intercourse may be performed on alternate days if daily is not possible. Of course continuing intercourse even after that has no harm. It is not harmful to the pregnancy.
