Human Menstrual Cycle Hormonal Overview
Diagram showing typical hormonal changes during the human menstrual cycle (even more smoothed versions are shown in simplified diagrams).
- Ovulation occurs around the time of leutenizing hormone surge mid-cycle.
- There is great variability in human menstrual cycle length.
- There are cycle and hormonal age dependent changes.
- Not shown are the Inhibin A and Inhibin B levels.
Legend
- FSH - follicle stimulating hormone (from anterior pituitary)
- GnRH - gonadotrophin releasing hormone (from hypothalamus)
- LH - leutenizing hormone (from anterior pituitary)
References
- The pituitary and ovarian hormone curves are based upon Greenspan's Endocrinology, where the actual levels have been measured.
- The body temperature curve is based upon Sex differences and reproductive hormone influences on human odor perception. Doty RL, Cameron EL. Physiol Behav. 2009 May 25;97(2):213-28. Epub 2009 Mar 9. Review. Erratum in: Physiol Behav. 2009 Oct 19;98(4):517. PMID: 19272398
