Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Several hormones are involved in the menstrual cycle of a woman: follicle stimulating hormone (FSH ) causes the maturation of an egg in the ovary. luteinising hormone (LH ) stimulates the release of the egg. oestrogen is involved in repairing and thickening the uterus lining, progesterone maintains the uterine lining.
Detailed explanation-2: -During the luteal phase, luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone levels decrease. The ruptured follicle closes after releasing the egg and forms a corpus luteum, which produces progesterone. During most of this phase, the estrogen level is high.
