I believe you're referring to Philip's daughters in Acts 21:9.
(Acts 21:9) And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy. There is a difference between prophesying and being a prophet.
Also, "prophet" is a masculine noun (G4396). Paul’s usage of “prophētēs” limits the operation of that calling to men only (See Eph 4:11).
