FSH stimulates the development of several follicles in the ovaries → granulosa cells of follicles produce estrogen → suppresses the release of FSH via a negative feedback loop 2. Selection of a dominant follicle (Graafian follicle) 3. High levels of estrogen trigger a positive feedback loop → release of FSH → subsequent LH surge initiates ovulation Endometrium: desquamation and proliferative phase • Desquamation (menstruation at days 1–4)  Absence of a pregnancy → resolution of corpus luteum → progesterone concentration decreases → induces vasospasms in the uterine spiral arteries, ischemia, and sloughing off of the functional layer of the endometrium • Proliferation (days 4–14): growing follicles produce estrogen (granulosa cells express aromatase, which converts androgens to estrogens) → stimulates proliferation of the endometrium Histology • Proliferation of endometrial epithelial cells (cells show high mitotic activity) • Endometrial glands are straight, tubular, and lined by simple columnar epithelium. • Stromal cells start to divide, enlarge, and accumulate glycogen. • Uterine spiral arteries start to regenerate and extend two-thirds of the way into the endometrium. Days 14–28 Ovaries: luteal phase ---------------------------------- • Ovulation: rupture of Graafian follicle → oocyte is released • Following ovulation, the granulosa cells produce LH receptors → LH-induced transformation of the Graafian follicle into the corpus luteum → produces progesterone → inhibits LH release via a negative feedback loop Endometrium: secretory phase • Endometrial differentiation promoted by progesterone → preparation of the functional layer of the endometrium for oocyte implantation Histology  Increased endometrial gland tortuosity  Glycogen-rich secretions  Edematous stromal cells  Uterine spiral arteries extend the full length of the endometrium. In the absence of pregnancy → ↓ progesterone levels → induces apoptosis of the functional layer of the endometrium (seen as shrinkage and fragmentation of endometrial cell nuclei) → menstruation #menstrualcycle #gyenecology #obg #follicularphase #letualphase #menstrualcyclephysiology #menstrualcyclembbs #menstrualcyclevideo #menstrualcycleusmle #menstrualcycle
