    An ovarian follicle is a roughly spheroid cellular aggregation set found in the ovaries. It secretes hormones that influence stages of the menstrual cycle. At the time of puberty, women have approximately 200,000 to 300,000 follicles, [1][2] each with the potential to release an egg cell (ovum) at ovulation for fertilization. [3]
