Abstract:IntroductionFollicle development is a critical process in the female reproductive system, with significant implications for fertility and reproductive health. Germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes are primary oocytes that are arrested in the dictyate stage, also known as the diplotene stage of meiotic prophase I. Metaphase II (MII) is the stage at which the oocyte is typically retrieved for assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF). The granulosa cells play a pivotal role in follicle deve… Show more
