Summary
The researchers hypothesize that emergency contraception (EC) will initiate the changes
associated with atresia or ovulatory failure at all stages of follicular development and that
the image attributes associated with atresia will be similar regardless of the diameter of
the dominant follicle when ovarian suppression is initiated. Second, changes associated with
atresia may be observed, but ovulation of the dominant follicle is unimpeded.
