The Ovarian Cycle

Ovarian follicles are large cells that form inside cavities in the ovaries, each containing an immature egg. Approximately every 28 days, an egg matures. Future eggs are already present in the fetus. At birth, a girl has approximately 400,000 future eggs, of which only about 400 will mature from puberty (menarche) onwards. After about 50 years, the maturation of eggs completes with menopause. The ovaries also produce the female hormones estrogen and progesterone.
