          1. Produced in the adrenal gland
          2. Menstrual Cycle Hormones
            1. FSH = Follicle Stimulating Hormone
              1. Encourages egg to develop
              2. LH = Luteinizing Hormone
                1. Causes egg to be released
                2. Oestrogen-secreted by ovaries
                  1. Stops production of FSH
                    1. Stimulates LH to start
                    2. Progesterone
                      1. Causes Uterus lining to thicken
                    3. Insulin
                      1. Produced in the pancreas

                          2. Low level of FSH means eggs won't develop
                          3. Doctors give women an injection of LH
                            1. Causes them to 'super ovulate'
                            2. Eggs are collected and fertilised in a petri dish with the man's sperm
                              1. A few of the healthy embryos are implanted into the women's uterus
                            3. Contraceptive pill
                              1. Some side-affects in some women
