What is luteinising hormone?

Luteinizing Hormone produced by the pituitary gland present at the base of the brain. In women LH helps to regulate the menstrual cycle and egg production. It stimulates the follicles to release the egg. The level of LH varies depending on the period of the menstrual cycle. There is an increase just before the ovulation occurs. In men LH stimulates the production of testosterone and is very important for sperm production.

Does every woman have a period?

No, not every woman has a menstrual cycle. Most healthy adult cis-women will menstruate, however women who have reached menopause will no longer have a menstrual cycle, nor will women who have had a hysterectomy - basically women who are no longer fertile. Women who use hormonal birth control don't have a menstrual cycle, as the purpose of hormonal birth control is to suppress the menstrual cycle so they don't ovulate - the bleeding women get is a withdrawal bleed, it mimics menstruation but isn't the same as menstruation. Many women were born biologically male, thus regardless of changes to their gender or genital reassignment surgery to change their sex, they are not capable of ovulation and thus don't have a menstrual cycle - although interestingly hormones given to many transsexual women can create symptoms similar to that of the menstrual cycle.
