Ovary - Corpus albicans
Hormone secretion in the corpus luteum (CL) ceases within 14 days after ovulation if fertilisation and implantation have not occurred.
- With no implantation and development, the corpus luteum degenerates into a corpus albicans, a whitish scar tissue within the ovary.
- With implantation and development, syncytiotrophoblast commence secretion of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) that hormonally supports the CL and the corpus albicans does not form.
Hormone secretion continues for 2-3 month after ovulation if fertilisation occurs.
