GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The ovaries, produce eggs (ova), which are the main source of estrogen from the body. Fat tissue and the adrenal glands-located at the top of each kidney-make small amounts of estrogen. The most common reason for low estrogen in women is menopause or surgical removal of the ovaries.

Detailed explanation-2: -Estrogens are a group of hormones that play an important role in the normal sexual and reproductive development in women. They are also sex hormones. The woman’s ovaries make most estrogen hormones, although the adrenal glands and fat cells also make small amounts of the hormones.

Detailed explanation-3: -One of a pair of female glands in which the eggs form and the female hormones estrogen and progesterone are made. These hormones play an important role in female traits, such as breast development, body shape, and body hair. They are also involved in the menstrual cycle, fertility, and pregnancy.

Detailed explanation-4: -During ovulation, the egg is released from the follicle in the ovary into the fallopian tube. Once the egg has been released at ovulation, the empty follicle that remains becomes the corpus luteum (CL). The CL produces the hormones progesterone (in a higher amount) and oestrogen (in a smaller amount).
