The relation between the FERN test results and the size of the
follicle was investigated by analysis of variance, as shown in table
9. With regard to FERN test results, statistically significant
differences in the size of follicle (F=7.504; P<0.01) have been
established. Accordingly, mean values of the size of follicles were
significantly higher in positive FERN test results than in negative
ones. Highly positive (+++) results of FERN test had significantly
higher mean values of the size of follicles in relation to mildly
positive (+) results, P<0.05.
The relation between the GANOP test results and mean value of the size
of follicles was investigated by analysis of variance as shown in table
10.
By the analysis of variance, statistically significant differences
(F=7.926; P<0.01) between GANOP test results and the size of the
follicle were established.

Mean values of the size of follicle were significantly higher in
positive results compared to negative results. Highly positive (+++)
results of GANOP test had significantly higher mean values of the size
of follicles in relation to mildly positive (+) results, P<0.05.
