Etymology: < post-classical Latin follicularis of or resembling a follicle, composed or consisting of follicles (1583 or earlier) < folliculus follicle n. + -āris -ar suffix¹.Compare classical Latin folliculāre leather lining of a rowlock, folliculāris of or relating to rowing, after ancient Greek ἄσκωμα leather lining of a rowlock, in Hellenistic Greek also leather bellows ( < ἀσκός bag, sac: see ascus n.). Compare an isolated earlier use of the word in the sense ‘performed by means of bellows’ ( < classical Latin folliculus bag, sack (see follicle n.) + -ar suffix¹):1676 T. Shadwell Virtuoso ii. 31 An Animal may be preserv'd without respiration..by follicular impulsion of Air.

1. Biology. Of the nature of or resembling a follicle (in various senses).

Compounds

follicular hormone n. Physiology any hormone produced by cells of the ovarian follicle; esp. oestrone.

ΚΠ

1917 Calif. State Jrnl. Med. 15 357/1 The mammary hormone probably antagonizes the follicular hormone or inhibits its production and thus moderates or prevents an excessive menstrual molimen.

1923 Jrnl. Amer. Med. Assoc. 81 821/1 The conclusion seems justified that this follicular hormone is the cause of estrual or mating instincts.

1947 A. T. Cameron Recent Adv. in Endocrinol. vi. 181 Oestrone (follicular hormone)..has marked oestrogenic properties.

2010 Behavioral Ecol. & Sociobiol. 64 853/1 High levels of progesterone, the main follicular hormone secreted during meiosis, favour the production of female ova.

follicular phase n. Physiology the phase of the reproductive cycle of women and other female mammals characterized by the maturation of one or more ovarian follicles, ending in ovulation.Contrasted with luteal phase.

ΚΠ

1923 Amer. Jrnl. Anat. 32 337 The conditions which affect the follicular phase of the sexual cycle are different from those affecting the lutein phase of the sexual cycle.

1998 Zest Oct. 51/4 The menstrual cycle is split into two parts: the luteal phase (days 0 to 2 and 13 to 32) and the follicular phase (days 3 to 12).

2017 Teen Vogue 19 No. 3. 67/2 Spivak says you're generally most energetic and outgoing right after your bleed, during your follicular phase.
