An ovarian cyst is a fluid-filled sac within the ovary. [1] ... Depending on size, growth rate ... Transvaginal ultrasonography showing a 67 x 40 mm endometrioma, ...
In PCOS, there is a so-called "follicular arrest"; i.e., several follicles develop to a size of 5–7 mm, but not further. No single follicle reaches the preovulatory size (16 mm or more). According to the Rotterdam criteria, which are widely used for diagnosis of PCOS, [ 10 ] 12 or more small follicles should be seen in a suspect ovary on ...
The follicle is now 0.2 mm in diameter Early tertiary: The early tertiary follicle is arbitrarily divided into five classes. Class 1 follicles are 0.2 mm in diameter, class 2 about 0.4 mm, class 3 about 0.9 mm, class 4 about 2 mm, and class 5 about 5 mm. Late tertiary: Fully formed antrum, no further cytodifferentiation, no novel progress
The Graaf follicle reaches its maximum diameter (20–22 mm) during ovulation. Antral follicles can attain a tremendous size that is hampered only by the availability of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), on which it is dependent in this stage of folliculogenesis.
Here’s what scientists do know: The ovaries are oblong glands each about the size of a kiwi. They’re responsible for the production and secretion of at least two essential hormones ...

The above table closely matches Broekmans' data only if interpreted as the total AFC of both ovaries. Only antral follicles that were 2–10 mm in size were counted in Broekmans' study. Age and AFC and Age of Loss of Natural Fertility (See Broekmans, et al. [2004])
