Ovarian follicular growth was monitored by ultrasound and plasma estradiol levels in 43 cycles of 27 patients. These women were treated with human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) for anovulation or poor cervical mucus. Ultrasonography can help to prevent multiple pregnancies by allowing the withholding of the ovulatory injection of hCG if the number of mature follicles is too great. Nevertheless, mild to moderate hyperstimulation cannot always be prevented; it is sometimes the price one has to pay to obtain a pregnancy. Giving a direct view of follicular maturation, this method can be helpful in the determination of the best time for the induction of ovulation.
通过超声检查和血浆雌二醇水平对27例患者的43个周期的卵巢卵泡生长情况进行了监测。这些女性因无排卵或宫颈黏液不佳而接受人绝经期促性腺激素（hMG）和人绒毛膜促性腺激素（hCG）治疗。如果成熟卵泡数量过多，超声检查可以通过允许推迟注射hCG来预防多胎妊娠。然而，轻度至中度的卵巢过度刺激并非总能预防；有时这是为了实现妊娠而不得不付出的代价。这种方法能够直接观察卵泡成熟情况，有助于确定诱导排卵的最佳时机。
