Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum.
As per the scan reports your follicles do not seem to grow.
Discuss with your doctor/gynecologist about getting you started on ‘ovulation inducing medication’ (to help you have egg release from the ovary).
Take a second opinion from an Infertility specialist about your pregnancy plans and go ahead with the infertility work-up for both you and your husband.
Take care.
