The immature follicles develop into cysts and grow larger with each succeeding menstrual cycle, often causing pain and bleeding. Why Eggs Won't Pop And Progesterone Isn't Made There are several causes behind dysfunctional follicles that won't release eggs and behind the fact that progesterone isn’t made. Among several other factors is the exposure of female embryos to xenobiotics (a large family of environmental pollutants that include xenohormones). As already mentioned, these are environmental pollutants that mimic the chemical activity of estrogen on the developing baby's tissues. Studies show that the creation of ovarian follicles is highly sensitive to the toxicity of xenobiotics. These chemicals can damage the female ovarian follicles and make them dysfunctional, unable to complete ovulation or produce sufficient progesterone. Lifestyle Factors That Contribute To PCOS And Dysfunctional Follicles Stress invoked by either lack of sleep, emotional issues, anxiety or pressure in your daily routine has been scientifically proven to contribute to PCOS and ovarian cyst formation as stress depresses your immune system, causes anovulatory cycles and elevates blood sugar levels. Taking birth control pills can shut down normal ovary function. A diet full of xenobiotics can hinder metabolism and prescription drugs can also negatively affect the menstrual cycle by impairing the functioning of the hypothalamus. Page 28
