Folliculogenesis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In biology, folliculogenesis is the maturation of the ovarian follicle, a densely-packed shell of somatic cells that contains an immature oocyte. Folliculogenesis describes the progression of a numb...

Within eight to ten weeks of fetal development, the primordial germ cells undergo multiple mitotic divisions and differentiate into primordial follicles. The primordial follicle consists of a primary oocyte surrounded by a layer of spindle-shaped granulosa cells demarcated by a basal lamina.

The assembly of the primordial follicles early in ovarian development and the subsequent development and transition of the primordial follicle to the primary follicle are critical processes in ovarian biology. These processes directly affect the number of oocytes available to a female throughout her reproductive life.
