| anovular ovarian follicle | A follicle that does not contain an ovum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| atretic ovarian follicle | A follicle that degenerates before coming to maturity; great numbers of such atretic follicle's occur in the ovary before puberty; in the sexually mature woman, several are formed each month. Synonym: corpus atreticum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cancer, ovarian | Cancer of the egg sac of females (ovary). In women under age 30, most ovarian growths are benign, fluid-filled sacs called cysts. There are several types of ovarian cancer.

| vesicular ovarian follicle | A follicle in which the oocyte attains its full size and is surrounded by an extracellular glycoprotein layer (zona pellucida) that separates it from a peripheral layer of follicular cells permeated by one or more fluid-filled antra; the theca of the follicle develops into internal and external layers. Synonym: folliculus ovaricus vesiculosus, graafian follicle, secondary follicle. (05 Mar 2000) |

Synonym: folliculus ovaricus primarius. (05 Mar 2000) |
| primordial ovarian follicle | A follicle in which the primordial oocyte is surrounded by a single layer of flattened follicular cells. (05 Mar 2000) |

| disease, polycystic ovarian | An hormonal problem that causes women to have a variety of symptoms including irregular or no periods, acne, obesity and excessive hair growth.
