Phase 3, Luteal Phase (Work) - The corpus luteum,... - Deepstash

Phase 3, Luteal Phase (Work) - The corpus luteum, which is a group of ovarian cells, releases progesterone and a tiny quantity of estrogen after ovulation. As a result, the uterine lining thickens to get ready for pregnancy. The corpus luteum continues to generate progesterone after a fertilized egg implants in the uterine lining, maintaining the uterus' thicker lining. In the absence of pregnancy, the corpus luteum dies, progesterone levels fall, the uterine lining breaks down and a new menstrual cycle starts.
