Q

Follicular phase (or proliferative phase)

A

Days 1 - 14
Each month, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is produced by the anterior pituitary. FSH stimulates the maturation of the follicles in a woman’s ovary. Estrogen is produced by the developing follicles (or the “eggs”). Estrogen is the predominant hormone during the first 2 weeks of the menstrual cycle. It stimulates the development and growth of the endometrial lining.

Q

Ovulatory phase

A

Day 14 (of a 28 day cycle)
Luteinizing hormone (LH) is secreted by the anterior pituitary gland, which induces ovulation and the maturation of the dominant follicle on day 14 (of a 28-day cycle). The follicle migrates to the fimbriae of the fallopian tube. It takes about 5 days for the egg to move through the fallopian tube, where conception can take place.

Q

Menstruation

A
