56
Q

starts to degenerate after 10 days–> becomes corpus albicans

A

menstruation occurs

63
Q

What happens when the corpus luteum stops producing inhibin

caused by estrogen

67
Q

What is occuring at the same time as the menstrual and prolifertive phase

A

follicular phase

68
Q

What occurs during the secretory phase

A

Increaes thickness of endothelium due to fluid build up

69
