oogenesis

what happens in the follicular phase of the ovarian cycle

primary follicles develop into secondary follicles, one follicle becomes a mature follicle

what happens in the luteal phase in the ovarian cycle

the empty follicle becomes a corpus luteum which secretes estradiol and progesterone

what is the proliferation phase

occurs while ovary is in its follicular phase, estradiol stimulates growth of the stratum functionale of the endometrium

what is the secretory phase

occurs while the ovary is in its luteal phase, endometrium becomes thick and more vascularizrd
