Fertilised egg is an egg which has fused with d sperm. That's a microscopic structure and hence can't be seen on scan. However there's d processes called ovulation. ie  breaking of d follicle that releases d oocyte/egg. This process can b very well documented. I think ur gynec wud have been referring to d above.
