No, follicles and fibroids are not the same. Follicles are small sacs in the ovaries that contain developing eggs and play a crucial role in the menstrual cycle and ovulation.

While both are related to reproductive health, they have different structures and functions.
Does all follicles produce eggs inside?
All follicles have the capacity to produce an egg. A baby girl is born with all the follicles she will ever have - about a million, and inside each one is a partially matured egg called an oocyte; each month from puberty onwards one (or occasionally more than one) follicle gets stimulated by hormones: the oocyte matures into an egg which is then released at ovulation. During a woman's reproductive life the pool of follicles decreases by apoptosis (programmed cell death), and when all of the follicles have been used up, either by follicular stimulation or by apoptosis, the woman enters menopause.

Where egg cells produced?
The primary reproductive organ of the female is the ovary. It is responsible for producing and developing egg cells. The ovary contains small groups of cells, called follicles. The follicles are composed of two types of cells: a reproductive cell that produces the egg and nutrient-producing cells. The nutrient-producing cells provide energy-rich chemicals to the developing egg.
How many immature follicles are in the ovary at puberty?
At puberty, the ovary has around 300,000 to 400,000 immature follicles. These follicles contain the oocyte (egg) and supporting cells responsible for its development. Over a woman's reproductive years, most of these follicles will undergo atresia (degeneration) with only a small number ovulating during menstrual cycles.
