What Disorders Affect the Preovulatory Follicle Stage?
Several disorders can impact this stage: - [Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)](): Characterized by multiple small follicles that fail to mature. - [Hypothalamic Amenorrhea](): A condition where the hypothalamus fails to signal the pituitary gland to release FSH and LH. - [Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI)](): Early depletion of ovarian follicles. - [Hormonal Imbalances](): Conditions like hyperprolactinemia can affect follicle development.
