A developing follicle is an egg maturing in your ovary. When it is mature it will release, and that is called ovulation. The sperm still has to fertilize the egg, and then the fertilized egg still needs to implant in the womb for you to be considered pregnant.

Is there any chance of pregnancy after no dominant follicle seen?
Yes, although the odds are lower. A dominant follicle is a single follicle with a maturing oocyte in it that is much larger than all the other follicles that started to develop in this cycle. The dominant follicle is the one that will eventually rupture and release a fertile oocyte, so not having a dominant follicle means the cycle is more likely to not be a fertile cycle.

Can ripe follicles in a woman be tracked by sonar?
Yes. You can do daily ultrasound examination from the tenth day of your cycle. You can visualize the follicle in one of the ovaries.
