Menstrual cycles of 274 women have been analyzed in order to decide on possibility of follow-up of follicular growth and development using echography and retrieval of preovulatory oocytes using sonographically guided transvaginal access during in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET). Transvaginal echography proved to be a very efficient tool in monitoring follicle growth during an IVF-ET program and outpatient oocyte retrieval with a minimal injury.
