Solution

Progesterone:

  1. After ovulation, the ovaries release progesterone, a female hormone.
  2. In the second half of the cycle, the progesterone hormone fulfills its role and creates the uterine lining, which is where the eggs are implanted after ovulation.
  3. The progesterone secretion is controlled by the luteinizing hormone (LH).
