Female Sex Hormones A. Hypothalamic releasing hormone Gonadotropin releasing hormone Luteinizing hormone B. Anterior pituitary hormone Follicle stimulating hormone Luteinizing hormone C. Ovarian hormone Estrogen Progesterone
Parts of Ovary a . Two poles Upper pole Lower pole b. Two surface Medial surface Lateral surface
Uterus: The uterus is a hollow cavity about size of a pear that exists to house a developing fertilized egg. Vagina: The vagina receives the penis and semen during sexual inter course and also provides a passageway for menstrual blood to revel the body
