How does FSH contribute to the growth and development of ovarian follicles during the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle?
FSH promotes the growth of ovarian follicles by stimulating the proliferation of granulosa cells and supporting estrogen production, essential for follicle maturation.
FSH stimulates ovarian follicles to mature by increasing estrogen production, which promotes follicle growth and prepares the egg for ovulation.
