A
Start of the cycle
B
Release of hormones.
C
Cause the egg in the ovary to mature.
D

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Therefore, the pituitary secretes FSH and LH, a process which actually begins before the onset of your menses. These hormones in turn stimulate the growth of several ovarian follicles, each containing one egg. The number of follicles in the monthly “cohort” of developing follicles is unique to each individual.

Detailed explanation-3: -In summary, during each menstrual cycle, there is a rise in follicle stimulating hormone secretion in the first half of the cycle (follicular phase) that stimulates follicular growth in the ovary. After ovulation the ruptured follicle forms a corpus luteum that produces high levels of progesterone (luteal phase).

Detailed explanation-4: -With the start of a menstrual cycle, pituitary produces FSH hormone which stimulates the ovaries to start the formation and maturation of eggs. With the maturation of these follicles, estrogen level rises in the body indicating the formation of the mature egg. This leads to the completion of the follicular phase.

Detailed explanation-5: -The egg travels down the fallopian tubes. If pregnancy doesn’t occur, the egg is reabsorbed into the body. Levels of oestrogen and progesterone fall, and the womb lining comes away and leaves the body as a period (the menstrual flow).
