Hi,

Thank you for asking!

Ovulation is primarily under the influence of FSH. That is released by pituitary gland.

Hope the answer of the question.

1.LH 2.FSH
Two of the most important hormones of pituitary gland are Follicle Stimulating Hormone (F.S.H.) and Luteinising Hormone (L.H.). at the start of each menstrual cycle, pituitary gland releases F.S.H. which makes immature eggs (follicles) grow . while the follicle is developing, cells around the egg produce the female hormone – oestrogen. Each month, oestrogen causes the lining of uterus to grow and prepares the lining of uterus (womb) to receive the fertilized egg.
Once follicle has reached a certain size and development, rsiisng level of oestrogen in blood, signal to the pituitary gland that ovary is ready to release the egg. Pituitary gland then sends out a high level of the hormone L.H. (this is known as ‘L.H. surge’) and this signals the ovary release the egg (ovulation). follicle bursts and the egg leaves the ovary and travels through one of the follicle tubes to the uterus.
