Your cycle.
Measured, not guessed.
A fertility pelvic ultrasound follows what is happening in your ovaries and womb across the cycle. What can be seen depends on which day of your cycle you attend.
Ovulation timing
Follow a leading follicle towards release, to help time treatment or conception.
Endometrial lining
Measure the thickness and pattern of the lining that would support implantation.
Uterus & ovaries
Look for fibroids, polyps, cysts or a polycystic appearance that may affect fertility.
IN DETAIL
Fertility Pelvic Ultrasound / Follicle Tracking – Endometrial Lining
A Fertility Pelvic Ultrasound / Follicle Tracking Scan / Endometrial Lining is a key tool in assessing reproductive health and optimizing the timing of ovulation for women trying to conceive, either naturally or through assisted reproductive technologies like IUI or IVF. This non-invasive procedure tracks the growth and development of ovarian follicles, which contain the eggs, and provides detailed imaging of the uterus and ovaries, helping to improve the chances of conception.
What is a Fertility Pelvic Ultrasound / Follicle Tracking Scan / Endometrial Lining?
A Fertility Pelvic Ultrasound uses sound waves to create clear images of the reproductive organs, particularly the uterus and ovaries. Follicle tracking is a process where the scan monitors the growth of ovarian follicles over the course of a woman’s menstrual cycle, allowing fertility specialists to determine the optimal time for ovulation.
- Monitoring follicular growth: Evaluating the size and maturity of follicles.
- Tracking ovulation: Identifying the precise time the egg is released for optimal fertility treatment or natural conception.
- Assessing the uterus: Checking for uterine abnormalities like fibroids or polyps.
- Evaluating the endometrium: Measuring the thickness of the uterine lining to ensure it can support implantation.

Why is it Important?
This scan is critical for fertility treatment and planning as it helps to:
- Optimize Fertility Treatments: Tracks follicular development in response to fertility drugs, helping to adjust medications and time interventions.
- Pinpoint Ovulation: Accurately predicts ovulation for natural conception.
- Evaluate Reproductive Health: Detects issues like PCOS, cysts, or other conditions that could impact fertility.
- Monitor Ovarian Response: Assesses how well the ovaries respond during stimulation.
Who Should Consider This Scan?
- Women undergoing fertility treatments like IVF or IUI.
- Women trying to conceive naturally, especially with irregular cycles.
- Those with suspected fertility issues such as PCOS or unexplained infertility.
- Women preparing for egg freezing or monitoring previous treatments.
Benefits of the Scan
- Non-invasive and Safe: Uses sound waves without radiation, ideal for regular monitoring.
- Precise Ovulation Tracking: Helps maximize conception timing.
- Guides Fertility Treatments: Assists with adjusting fertility medications based on your ovarian response.
- Detailed Reproductive Health Assessment: Evaluates and helps identify conditions that may affect fertility.
Whether you’re undergoing fertility treatments or trying to conceive naturally, a Fertility Pelvic Ultrasound / Follicle Tracking / Endometrial Lining Scan can provide invaluable insights into your reproductive health and ovulation timing.

Have the first day of your last period, your usual cycle length and any fertility medication to hand.
Understand the scan
A scan over your tummy is used first. An internal (transvaginal) scan usually gives the clearest view of follicles and lining; it is explained first and only performed with your consent.
Talk about the next steps
Ask what the measurements mean, when to come back, and what to pass on to your fertility clinician.

04 / A FEW THINGS YOU MAY BE WONDERINGYour questions.
Your questions.
Clear answers.
Need something more personal?
Speak to the team before booking.
When in my cycle should I book?
A baseline antral follicle count is usually done early in the cycle, around days 2 to 5. Follicle tracking normally starts around day 10 or 11 and continues every couple of days until ovulation. If your cycle is irregular or you are on medication, call the clinic and we will help you choose the day.
Will I need an internal scan?
Usually, yes. A transvaginal scan gives a much clearer view of follicles and the lining than a scan over the tummy. The sonographer will explain why it is suggested and ask for your consent, and you can discuss your preferences first.
How many scans will I need?
It depends on your cycle and your treatment. Some people need a single scan; most tracking plans use three or four. Three-scan and four-scan packages are available in the booking system at a lower price than booking each visit separately.
Can the scan tell me whether I have ovulated?
It can show a follicle growing, then changes suggesting it has released, alongside the state of the lining. It cannot confirm conception or guarantee an outcome. Your fertility clinician will read it together with your blood results and history.
Do I need a GP referral?
No. You can book directly. A written report is prepared for you and can be shared with your GP, your fertility clinic or your IVF consultant.
Can my partner be scanned at the same time?
Yes. The couples fertility option in the booking system combines a pelvic transvaginal scan with a testicular ultrasound in one visit.

Preparation, made clear.
- Drink 1 litre of still water (2 pints) one hour before your appointment, for the scan over your tummy.
- Please do not use the toilet until that part of the scan is done.
- An internal scan needs an empty bladder — you will be asked to use the toilet first if one is needed.
- Take your usual medication as normal, including any fertility medication.
