What are the hormones produced by the vesicular follicle?
estrogen
What hormone is produced by the vesicular follicle?
Estrogen
What is the major secretory product of the graafian follicle is?
The main one is progesterone, but the corpus luteum also produces estrogen.
What stimulates the release of the hormone estrogen?
Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH).
What hormone causes an egg to begin to develop inside a follicle?
Estrogen
What is corpusluteum stage?
It develops from the ruptured follicle in the ovary.Within 10 days,the corpus luteum secrets the hormones estrogen and progesterone,which are essential for the final preparation of the uterus for the implantation of the fertilized egg.
What hormones inhibits secretion of follicle stimulating hormone by the anterior pituitary?
inhibin and estrogen in females, inhibin and testosterone in males
Why are the interactions of hormones and tissues in the menstrual cycle considered to be feedback mechanisms?
In the menstrual cycle, the initial purpose is to make a follicle (thing in which the egg develops)..FSH or Follicle stimulating hormone initiates the formation of the follicle. LH or Luteinizing hormone assist FSH in the formation of the follicle and to develope its ability to secrete estrogen. As the follicle progresses in its development it begans to secrete estrogen and progesterone. Estrogen passes into the blood and travels to the pititary gland where it turns off the production of FSH. This is an example of negative feedback. The presence of estrogen in the blood sitmulate the production of LH and this would be a positive feedback.
What hormone stimulates female egg production?
The hormone is FSH - follicle stimulating hormone. As the follicle develops, it produces estrogen.
What hormones cause a thickening of the endometrium to prepare for pregnancy?
PROGESTERONE and ESTROGEN. Under the influence of Hypothalamus, Pituitary gland starts secreting the hormone Follicle Stimulating Hormone (F.S.H.) after menses. Witch stimulates few follicles from Ovaries to enlarge. These in turn secretes the hormone Estrogen, witch brings about the changes in Endometrium (Inner wall of Uterus.)called Proliferative stage. Usually on day 14 of menses, Follicle ruptures under the influence of Leutenizing Hormone from Pituitary gland , liberating Ovum in Peritoneal cavity. Witch is taken up by Fallopian tube and if fertilized, get embedded in Uterus on day 8, usually. After rupture of Follicle it becomes Corpus Lute-um.(White body.) Witch secretes the Hormone Progesterone as well as Estrogen. Unruptured Follicles also continue to secrete Estrogen. Together they bring about the change in Endometrium for implantation of Fertilized Ovum by making it thick called as Secretary stage.
What hormone stimulates the ovaries to develop follicles and secrete estrogen?
FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone)
What hormone is secreted by the follicle wall during ovulation?
In the late maturation follicular phase, the dominant follicle level secretion of estrogen crosses a certain threshold stimulating Luteinizing Hormone (LH) secretion, which in turn stimulates more estrogen production by the follicle. The result is a rapid increase in LH secretion, the LH surge, and therefore triggers the rupture of the dominant follicle, in other words, ovulation.
