Natural Cycle Monitoring
What is Natural Cycle Monitoring?
The process of testing and understanding the days during your menstrual cycle in which you are most fertile is known as natural cycle monitoring or follicular tracking or ovulation cycle tracking. It determines the optimal time during your cycle to conceive naturally through sexual intercourse. No medication or drugs are used to stimulate the ovaries. Only observation and assessment of the growth and maturation of the Graafian follicles is done. This is achieved through ultrasound examinations and requires at least three visits to the fertility expert at IVF Spring Fertility in Mumbai.
Future treatment and advice is given based on the results of your ovulation cycle tracking where we gather information about your physiological menstrual cycle, ovulation, luteal phase and hormonal changes.

Ovulation cycle tracking process:
- The first visit for your follicular tracking will happen at the time of menstruation. Routine checks are done for abnormalities, like the presence of cysts.
- In the 2 subsequent meetings Graafian follicle growth is assessed. This is done with conjunction with tests to assess the extent of the endometrium and occurrence of ovulation.
- Ultrasound scans are used before expected ovulation and in the second visit we check for the anticipated ruptured follicle
- This process may have to be carried out over several menstrual cycles as you may not always receive the most accurate results during the first test. This is only to rule out abnormal ovulation as the cause of the unexplained fertility.
Menstrual cycles may vary from month to month. When ovulation tracking is carried out over 2 or 3 cycles a range of data is available which provides the fertility experts at IVF Spring Center to deliver the participants with the most accurate results. It is not always necessary, but this could be the case in some instances.
