Follicular fluid
Journal Title: Ginekologia i Położnictwo medical project - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 43
Abstract
Follicular fluid is an immediate environment of a developing oocyte. Therefore, determining its composition provides a good tool for evaluation of oocyte quality and its capability to be fertilized as well as for assessment of the course of early pregnancy. The review of the available literature concerning this subject proves that there is a need for further studies on the composition and role of follicular fluid in order to learn about yet unknown mechanisms responsible for reproduction failures and pathologies of early embryonic and fetal development.
