How old is the follicle for ovulation?

During the formation of egg cells, the eggs in the ovaries need to go through a series of growth and maturation processes. Generally speaking, it takes about 14 days for egg cells to form, and mature eggs need to wait for about three days in the ovary before being released.

So, when does the egg cell enter the mature stage? Generally speaking, the sign that an egg cell has entered the mature stage is that the size of the egg cell begins to increase, and the shape of the egg cell also begins to change. Normally, the size of an egg cell will be about 1.7 centimeters, but the specific size will vary from person to person.

After the egg cells enter the mature stage, they are usually released in about three days. During the process of egg expulsion, the egg passes through the fallopian tube and eventually reaches the uterus where it awaits fertilization.
