Menstrual cycle
1. Both FSH and LH secretion by the anterior pituitary increases, with FSH increase being slightly greater than LH
2. -LH stimulates the granulosa cells and theca cells to be converted to luteal cells → Corpus luteum -Progesterone: Stimulate the uterine endometrium to become secretory and produce a source of nutrient for the developing blastocyst. Stimulate the cervical mucus to become thick: prevent entry of sperm and bacteria Causes basal body temperature to rise slightly.
3. If no implantation occurs, the low levels of FSH and LH causes the corpus luteum to degenerate Degeneration → decrease release of estrogen and progesterone  Decreased stimulation of the endometrial cells by these two hormones
4. Ovulation : Day 14 / LH surge
