title: [Role of LH in folliculogenisis during the menstrual cycle].
abstract: LH participates, with FSH, in normal follicle growth. LH and the ovarian follicle LH and the egg Implication of LH in oocyte modification via paracrine mediation and via the action of somatic cells following stimulation of the receptors present on the granulosa cells. LH and ovulation Control of ovulation by the LH peak inducing, about 36 hours later, rupture of the follicle, secretion of progesterone, and formation of the corpus luteum. Activation of LH by a pro-inflammatory cascade during follicle rupture and, in response, an anti-inflammatory cascade leading to repair of the ovary surface.
