Smaller and smaller follicles may be related to abnormal hormone levels, ovarian hypogonadism, polycystic ovary syndrome and so on.
1. Abnormal hormone levels: when endocrine disorders, estrogen and androgen levels are out of balance, it will affect the development of follicles, resulting in smaller and smaller follicles.
2. Ovarian hypogonadism: when ovarian hypogonadism occurs, the ovarian sex hormone secretion is insufficient, which directly affects the development of follicles, resulting in smaller and smaller follicles.
3. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): This is a reproductive endocrine metabolic disease in which the secretion of androgens increases, which affects follicle development and maturation, and there are also symptoms such as scanty or even amenorrhea, hirsuteness, acne, and alopecia, which can also affect follicle development.
If the follicles are getting smaller and smaller, you should consult a doctor as soon as possible to find out the cause and treat accordingly.
