Abstract

A wave phenomenon of ovarian follicular development in women has recently been documented in our laboratory. The objective of the present study was to characterize follicular waves to determine whether women exhibit major and minor wave patterns of follicle development during the interovulatory interval (IOI). The ovaries of 50 women with clinically normal menstrual cycles were examined daily using transvaginal ultrasonography for one IOI. Profiles of the diameters of all follicles >or=4 mm and the numbers of follicles >or=5 mm were graphed during the IOI. Major waves were defined as those in which one follicle grew to >or=10 mm and exceeded all other follicles by >or=2 mm. Minor waves were defined as those in which follicles developed to a diameter of <10 mm and follicle dominance was not manifest. Blood samples were drawn to measure serum concentrations of estradiol-17beta, LH, and FSH. Women exhibited major and minor patterns of follicular wave dynamics during the IOI. Of the 50 women evaluated, 29/34 women with two follicle waves (85.3%) exhibited a minor-major wave pattern of follicle development and 5 women (14.7%) exhibited a major-major wave pattern. Ten of the 16 women with three follicle waves (62.5%) exhibited a minor-minor-major wave pattern, 3 women (18.8%) exhibited a minor-major-major wave pattern, and 3 women (18.8%) exhibited a major-major-major wave pattern. Documentation of major and minor follicular waves during the menstrual cycle challenges the traditional theory that a single cohort of antral follicles grows only during the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
