What is Understanding the Normal Menstrual Cycle about?

The normal menstrual cycle depends on changes in hormone levels controlled by the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis. The hypothalamus secretes GnRH to stimulate the pituitary to release FSH and LH. FSH and LH act on the ovaries to regulate follicle development and ovulation. During the follicular phase, FSH causes follicle growth and estrogen production. Rising estrogen triggers an LH surge near ovulation. Following ovulation, the corpus luteum produces progesterone during the luteal phase.
