Answer 1

The correct option is D C - Secreted by Corpus luteum

The various hormones which regulate the menstrual cycle :

A - Oestrogen - There is a direct relationship between the lack of estrogen after menopause and the development of osteoporosis.

B - Progesterone - helps thicken the lining of the uterus to prepare for a fertilized egg. If there is no fertilized egg, progesterone levels drop and menstruation begins.

C - FSH - Secreted by anterior pituitary gland not by Corpus luteum. Corpus luteum secretes Progesterone.

D - LH - an acute rise of LH triggers ovulation and development of the corpus luteum.
