What does an antral follicle count tell us about egg quality?

The antral follicle count (AFC) is a measure of the number of small follicles present in the ovaries during the early follicular phase of the menstrual cycle. A higher AFC is generally associated with more available eggs, better egg quality and better ovarian reserve, indicating overall egg quality.
