“…Follicular steroids are secreted by granulosa and theca cells under the control of gonadotropins, and the hormonal microenvironment affects the development of the follicles and viability of the oocytes (Speroff, Glass, & Kase, 1999). In normal ovulatory cycles, a higher concentration of E2 in follicular fluid (FF) is associated with healthy follicles that contain oocytes capable of meiosis, and higher concentrations of androgens indicative of atretic changes (degeneration and subsequent resorption of the follicles) (Greenwald & Roy, 1994;Speroff, Glass, & Kase, 1999).…”

The majority of earlier studies of steroids in ovarian follicles (McNatty et al, 1979;Dehennin, Jondet, & Scholler, 1987a,b;Itskovitz et al, 1991) were undertaken to obtain prognostic parameters for the likelihood of a successful implantation during in vitro fertilization (IVF); however, the relationship between steroid hormones and follicular development in regularly menstruating (RM) healthy women was not well studied.…”

“…There is a precipitous decrease in estrogen in the days following ovulation and then a gradual increase during the early to mid-luteal phase. Estrogen then drops again during the late luteal phase just prior to menses [50].…”

“…Thus, the early appearance of estrogen within the follicle allows the follicle to respond to relatively low concentrations of FSH. The dominance of estradiol and FSH in follicular fluid is essential for sustained accumulation of granulosa cells, continued follicular growth and estradiol production [15].…”
