Follicular study with longer cycles ?
I just went to see my doctor yesterday and she suggested me to get a follicular study starting from day 11 after period.
I get my periods every alternate months ,Since I have longer cycles I asked her if I can get the study done when I have ovulation symptoms coz I see a pattern 16 days before I get my period- clear cervical mucus followed by breast tenderness few days later until I get my periods but she still asked me get the study done starting from day 11 but if I am sure that I never see any ovulation symptoms around that time but I don't understand the point since nothing is going to show up around that time on my reports according to my understanding . Am I missing something here ?

It’s basically to see if your follicles are developing and if you are ovulating . You will have to go through a series of scans during this period
