Best Answer

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.

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.


Why does menstruation stop during pregnancy?

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.

What happens to the egg follicle the ovary?

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.
