The ovarian follicle has two functions. It provides for the maturation and release of a fertilizable egg. The follicle stimulating hormone regulates the development, growth, and pubertal maturation.
Inhibins (and activins) play a critical role in follicle development.

The increase in levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) that occurs at puberty stimulates the maturation of a primary follicle in the ovary. FSH acts on the granulosa cells of the primary follicle, promoting their proliferation and differentiation. This leads to the growth and development of the primary follicle into a secondary follicle.
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is the hormone that stimulates follicle development in the ovary. It is produced by the pituitary gland and plays a key role in the menstrual cycle of females.
In females, in the ovary FSH stimulates the growth of immature Graafian follicles to maturation. Graafian follicles are the mature follicle. Primary follicles mature to Graafian follicles. As the follicle grows, it releases inhibin, which shuts off the FSH production.

what funtion does the capillary loop have in the hair follicle
Hair is to protect our bodies from the elements, helps regulate heat and is a sensory item this is why each hair follicle has nerve endings attached. Its also there to look pretty! Pubic hair is also there to stop skin from rubbing.
Inhibins (and activins) play a critical role in follicle development.
The hair follicle is responsible for producing and maintaining hair. It is where hair growth begins, with cells dividing and pushing up through the follicle to form the hair shaft. The follicle also contains sebaceous glands that produce oil to keep the hair moisturized and healthy. Additionally, the follicle plays a role in anchoring the hair to the scalp.
The Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) in males is responsible for triggering sperm production.
Follicle development occurs in several stages: primordial follicle, primary follicle, secondary follicle, preantral follicle, antral follicle, and mature (Graafian) follicle. Each stage involves specific changes in the follicle and oocyte as they mature towards ovulation.
graafian follicle
Hair receptors entwine each follicle and respond to hair movements. You can feel their effect by carefully moving a single hair with a pin or by lightly running your finger over hairs of your forearm without touching the skin.
