Description

These sources discuss the intricate nature of the female reproductive system, focusing on the sexual cycles that are unique compared to the male system. They specifically detail the ovarian cycle, a roughly 28-day process driven by the interplay of hormones from the hypothalamus and anterior pituitary gland, primarily FSH and LH. The sources explain the stages of follicle development within the ovaries, culminating in ovulation—the release of a mature egg—and the subsequent formation of the corpus luteum, a temporary structure producing female sex hormones. The process of oogenesis, or egg development, is also touched upon, including the pausing and completion of meiosis and the potential implications of delayed fertilization.
