MEDICAL PHYSIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -GnRH stimulates the pituitary gland to produce follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), the hormone responsible for starting follicle (egg) development and causing the level of estrogen, the primary female hormone, to rise.

Detailed explanation-2: -During the follicular phase of your menstrual cycle, around 11 to 20 eggs begin developing, but only one matures completely. Hormones in your brain and your ovaries regulate the changes in your body that make this process possible. Your pituitary gland releases follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH).

Detailed explanation-3: -Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) is produced by the pituitary gland in the brain. It is an important hormone for normal functioning of the reproductive system in men and women. In women, FSH helps control the menstrual cycle and the production of eggs by the ovaries.

Detailed explanation-4: -These hormones coexist in a delicate balance to keep your periods regular. Estrogen plays a role in ovulation (when your ovaries release an egg) and thickens the lining of your uterus (endometrium) to prepare it for pregnancy.
