Cycle : ovulation<br />

• LH stimulates theca cells to grow &<br />

produce androgens<br />

• One dominant follicle continues to<br />

grow<br />

• Granulosa cells of that follicle<br />

respond to LH & FSH & secrete<br />

estrogen<br />

• Estradiol peaks preovulatory causes<br />

a surge in LH<br />

• Granulosa cells secrete inhibin and<br />

finally have effect on FSH so FSH<br />

drop off just prior to ovulation
