Why don’t follicles grow bigger?

The development of female follicles is mainly divided into three stages. The first stage is the primordial follicle, which is still the smallest at this time. Then it will begin to develop slowly and increase in size until it finally becomes a mature follicle. The mature follicle will be discharged from the ovary. If the mature follicle successfully combines with sperm, the conditions for pregnancy can be met. However, some women's follicles never grow, which may lead to infertility. So what is the reason behind this?

Why don’t follicles grow bigger?

1. Ovarian factors: The ovaries are where follicles are nurtured. If there is a problem with the ovaries, it will directly affect the development of the follicles.

2. Physical health factors: Many female friends suffer from diseases such as kidney deficiency and uterine cold. These diseases also have a great impact on the development of female follicles and affect the reproductive health of female follicles.

3. High mental stress: If women are under too much mental stress in their work and life, it will lead to endocrine disorders and indirectly cause poor development of female follicles.

4. Excessive weight loss: Love of beauty is a woman’s nature. Many female friends suffer from endocrine disorders due to excessive weight loss, which directly affects the development of female follicles.

Symptoms of follicular dysplasia

Agenesis: The follicles do not develop, only at a small level

Small follicles: The follicles are immature and often less than 18 mm in diameter.

The follicle is not round: the follicle is not round, but oval or even "date-shaped", and has no fertilization ability.

Unruptured follicle: The follicle matures but does not rupture, and ovulation cannot occur.
