Question
the corpus luteum continues to secrete which hormone after ovulation?
lh
fsh
estrogen
progesterone
Brief Explanations
After ovulation, the corpus luteum (formed from the ruptured follicle) secretes progesterone. Progesterone helps prepare the uterus for a potential pregnancy. LH (luteinizing hormone) and FSH (follicle - stimulating hormone) are mainly involved in the earlier stages of the menstrual cycle, and while the corpus luteum does secrete some estrogen, progesterone is its primary hormone secretion post - ovulation.
