About this document

Ovarian Cycle by gladiolus75930 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The ovarian cycle consists of cyclical changes in the ovaries, regulated by FSH and LH hormones from the anterior pituitary. It includes three phases: the follicular phase, ovulation, and the luteal phase, with the follicular phase characterized by the maturation of follicles and ovulation occurring due to an LH surge. After ovulation, the ruptured follicle transforms into the corpus luteum, which secretes hormones to support potential pregnancy, or regresses if fertilization does not occur.
