Creşterea progesteronului ca declanşator al ovulaţiei

A large number of studies have addressed the issue of ovulation, with specific hormones having well-determined roles. Despite the fact that estrogens are known to play a critical role when mature oocytes are set for the process of ovulation, recent studies have disputed the role of the true physiological ovulation trigger, indicating progesterone as the genuine one. The current discussion raises an interesting debate, as progesterone surge may be the real trigger of ovulation. The current mentioned subject needs further investigation in order to ascertain unambiguous conclusions.
