Quizplus · Accepted Answer

After ovulation, the endometrium enters its secretory phase, preparing for possible implantation of a fertilized egg. The corpus luteum is formed from the ruptured follicle after ovulation and secretes both estrogen and progesterone, not just estrogen. The secretion of anterior pituitary gonadotropins (FSH and LH) decreases after ovulation. The corpus luteum prepares to become a corpus albicans if fertilization does not occur.
