What causes the breakdown of the uterine lining if the implantationof a zygote does not occur?

As part of the menstrual cycle, the engrossing of the uterus is due to the production of progesterone in the ovaries (induced by LH), the drop in progesterone during the last days of the cycle due to the degeneration of the corpus luteum is what triggers the menstruation. If a zygote implants in the endometrium, it starts producing hCG, a hormone that stops the degeneration of the corpus luteum so progesterone levels don't drop. As such, if the zygote doesn't implant itself in the uterus, the cycle keeps going, the pituitary gland lowers production of LH, produces more FSH, corpus luteum degenerates, progesterone levels lower, strogens rise and menstruation occurs
