QUANTITATIVE MORPHOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF THE FOLLICULAR SYSTEM IN WOMEN

Abstract

Parts I and II of the present work have been published in Acta Anatomica Scandinavica. In Part I, the author discussed various methods for the quantitative determination of the follicular system and defined his own statistical method. In Part II he gave an account of his own material and of investigations relevant to the variations of the follicular system at different ages in women. This work, which is a continuation of that mentioned above was performed in order to ascertain whether rhytmic changes occur in the follicular system, apart from those involving the maturating follicle and corpus luteum.
