Ovaries

Gonadotropic hormones from the hypothalamus cause the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland (pars distalis) to release follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). These hormones stimulate the development of ovarian follicles, which in turn secrete estrogen. Rising estrogen levels trigger a surge of LH. This results in ovulation and the development of the corpus luteum, which begins to secrete progesterone and estrogen. Progesterone builds up the endometrial wall in preparation for implantation (pregnancy). Progesterone also inhibits LH, so if no pregnancy occurs, the corpus luteum causes its own demise. If a pregnancy occurs, the placenta produces human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) to maintain the corpus luteum and pregnancy.
