Abstract
A study of mathematical models capable of describing the structure of the ovarian follicle population led us to define three important factors (Mariana and Millier,1977) : 1) initiation of growth in small follicles with one layer of cells surrounding the oocyte ; 2) follicular growth by granulosa cell multiplication, increase in oocyte size and formation of the antrum ; 3) follicle disappearance due to atresia or ovulation.
