Solution

Follicle:

  1. A follicle is a small sac of fluid in the ovaries that contains a developing egg.
  2. If the follicle size is between 18-20 mm in diameter, they are considered to be viable for the egg collection.
  3. However, sizes greater than 24 are considered too big, the egg within is overmature and is no longer viable.
