Hello, poor follicular development may result from: - Endocrine dysfunction, hypothalamic dysregulation of pituitary function, or abnormal ovarian hormone secretion; - Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI): menstrual cycles may initially appear normal but later become infrequent and may eventually progress to amenorrhea; - Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS): follicles fail to mature properly, thus requiring pharmacological intervention to stimulate follicular development; - Pituitary disorders. We hope the above information is helpful to you. Wishing you a happy and healthy life!
