Fertility Question

Not sure if anyone knows about this but my head is melted, so thought id ask. If you have a mature egg at your 14 day scan but the egg is delayed in being released by up to 5 days, so basically doesnt leave your ovary till between day 17 and 19 is the egg still viable for conception or not?

As far as I know, it's fine?

They don't actually measure the egg on the scan, it's the follicle they measure with the egg inside it. The egg lasts for 12 hrs after release so as long as it's in the follicle I think it's still fine.
