A physician may use a transvaginal ultrasound to visualize and count the number of antral follicles in each of a woman's ovaries in order to determine her ovarian reserve; however AFC is not predictive of embryo quality.

Normal follicle count (4-24): Normal follicle amount for women in reproductive age. High follicle count (>=): High risk of hyperandrogenism. It has been ...

   Under ultrasound guidance, the operator inserts a 16.5 gauge × 11.8″ (1.6 mm × 300 mm outer diameter) needle through the vaginal wall and into an ovarian follicle, taking care not to injure nearby organs and blood vessels. The other end of the needle is attached to a suction device.
