    INHIBIN

    -hormone made by Sertoli cells; provides negative


    feedback to hypothalamus in control of FSH and GnRH
    release

    ESTROGEN
    -reproductive hormone in females that assists in
    endometrial regrowth, ovulation, and calcium absorption

    GnRH
    -hormone from the hypothalamus that causes the
    release of FSH and LH from the anterior pituitary

    FSH
    -reproductive hormone that causes sperm production
    in men and follicle development in women

    LH
    - reproductive hormone in both men and women,
    causes testosterone production in men and ovulation
    and lactation in women

    FOLLICULAR PHASE
    -During this period, primary follicles mature into the Graffian
    follicles.

    PROGESTERONE
    -reproductive hormone in women; assists in endometrial re-growth and inhibition
    of FSH and LH release

    MENSTRUAL PHASEa
    - During this period, the cycle starts with the menstrual flow (3 to 5 days)

    SERTOLI CELL
    - cell in seminiferous tubules that assists developing
    sperm and makes inhibin

    LUTEAL PHASE
    - During this period, the corpus luteum degenerates, thereby causing the disintegration of the
    endometrium and the start of a new cycle.
