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.
Ovulation ceases during pregnancy because the circulating levels of estrogen and progesterone are high and this inhibits the release of follicle stimulating hormone (which is necessary for ovulation.)
No Luteinizing hormone is secreted as part of the monthly menstrual cycle. It triggers ovulation and allows retention of the corpus luteum. The hormone secreted during pregnancy is called human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG).
no. a surge in LH during the middle of the ovarian cycle is responsible for ovulation.
The menstrual cycle involves the interaction of hormones including follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) which are secreted by the anterior pituitary, and steroid hormones estrogen and progesterone secreted by the granulosa cells of the ovary.
That is LH Luteinising hormone.
Its a hormone secreted by adrenal glands. Its secreted during anxiety and excitement. It secreted when ACTH hormone is secreted by pituitary gland in brain. chemically, it is sterol(=steroid) i.e. Derivative of lipids.

No, a developing follicle means the ovum (egg) is still maturing. Once "ripe" the follicle will burst during ovulation and the ovum will be released.
Menstruation stops during pregnancy for a couple of reasons. First, the hormones that the corpus luteum (the place on the ovary where the egg came from) secretes include progesterone which stops the follicle stimulating hormone. Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) is what makes your ovary grow eggs and it stops because of the progesterone. Second, when the follicle stimulating hormone is not present, a new egg will not grow. Without a new egg to grow, ovulation will not occur and progesterone will not drop so your lining will stay put until you give birth.
Oviduct
A mature follicle will be released during ovulation and travel to the uterus. If is it fertilized, then it will implant in the uterine wall. If it does not then it will be passed out of the body during the menstrual cycle.
