What does regressing corpus luteum indicate?
A regressing corpus luteum indicates that the egg was not fertilized. As the corpus luteum regresses it loses its capacity to produce progesterone. A regressed corpus luteum is termed as corpus albicans. The lack of progestorone, which leads to the shedding of the uterine lining, is responsible for the menstrual cycle.
Where is the corpus luteum located?

Which hormone stimulates the disintegration of corpus luteum?
The hormone that stimulates the disintegration of the corpus luteum is prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α). Following the failure of fertilization, PGF2α is released, leading to the regression of the corpus luteum, a process known as luteolysis. This decline in corpus luteum activity results in decreased levels of progesterone, which is crucial for maintaining early pregnancy.
