Hi,
In one of the Hormones cards in decks,it says that in presence of estrogen,progesterone or a synthetic substitute,hypothalamus fails to secrete LH-Releasing factor.This inhibits the release of luteinising hormone from anterior pituitary.Subsequently,ovulation doesnot occur.
By this we understand that estrogen/pro/syn. hormone inhibit ovulation,isnt it?
In the very same card it says later that ovulation occurs as a result of estrogen-induced LH surge.
Aren't they contradictory?How can estrogen inhibit as well as induce ovulation?
Can someone please explain this?
