Understanding the Ovarian Interrelationship with Low Antral Follicle Counts (AFC) in the In Vivo Bos indicus Cow Model: Unilateral and Bilateral Main AFC as Possible Biomarkers of Ovarian Response to Hormonal Synchronisation.

ABSTRACT: The antral follicle count (AFC) is a test in which the number of oocyte-containing follicles that are developing in both ovaries are visually counted. The count of these follicles strongly relates to the population of the growing follicle reserve on the ovaries. However, the importance of the main number of antral follicle populations (mAFC) in mono-ovulatory animal species has yet to be completely elucidated. Moreover, the investigation of the ovarian interrelationship with unilateral mAFC (main number of antral follicle populations appearing on only one side of the ovary) and bilateral mAFC (main number of antral follicle populations appearing in equivalent numbers on both sides of the ovary) and how understanding this interrelationship can offer possible indicators of ovarian response t
