PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Your ovaries play a critical role in both menstruation and conception. They produce eggs for fertilization and they make the hormones estrogen and progesterone. An ovary releases an egg around the middle of your menstrual cycle (around day 14 of a 28-day cycle) in a process called ovulation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Ovarian cycle The cycle comprises a follicular phase of 12-14 days, a periovulatory phase of approximately 3 days, and luteal phase of 14-16 days. In the absence of pregnancy, the luteal phase is concluded with regression of the corpus luteum and menses. A single, dominant follicle develops.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hormones of the Ovaries Estrogen (estradiol, specifically) is instrumental in breast development, fat distribution in the hips, legs, and breasts, and the development of reproductive organs. To a lesser extent, the ovaries release the hormone relaxin prior to giving birth.
