Cycle Physiology Ppt: Menstrual
The climax of the cycle, ovulation, deserves a dedicated slide. The key physiological concept here is the "LH surge." The presentation must explain the mechanism of the positive feedback loop: as estrogen levels from the dominant follicle exceed a specific threshold for a sustained period, it triggers a massive release of LH from the pituitary. This surge causes the follicle to rupture and release the oocyte. Diagrams showing the enzymatic breakdown of the follicular wall can enhance understanding of this process.
The surge causes the dominant follicle to rupture, releasing the egg into the fallopian tube. C. The Luteal Phase (Days 15–28) menstrual cycle physiology ppt
