Menstrual Cycle Card Sort

Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is released by the pituitary gland and stimulates the ovaries to produce estrogen. FSH causes the egg to mature and signals the brain to stop producing FSH, causing the egg to be released around day 14 of the menstrual cycle. FSH is found in some contraceptive pills to prevent egg development and is highest around day 14 of the menstrual cycle.
