Infertility

Luteinized Unruptured Follicle Syndrom?

?Luteinized Unruptured Follicle (LUF) Syndrome: Here, the eggs can become trapped in the follicle and not be released (?trapped ovulation?). In such cases, routine tests done to detect ovulation (temperature charting, urine LH testing, blood progesterone levels) may be normal, resulting in false interpretation that ovulation is actually occurring.

 Has anyone heard of this?? I really need to stop googling!
