Ovarian follicular steroid synthesis

Diagramatic representation of the steroidogenic pathways in human pre-luteinized follicles (A) and post luteinized follicles (B), demonstrating granulosa dependence on theca cell testosterone steroidogenesis in pre-luteinized follicles and the de novo synthesis of progesterone from cholesterol due to induction/up-regulation of CYP11A and 3βHSD after the gonadotropin surge in post luteinized follicles.
