Extra
- Estrogen and progestins inhibit LH / FSH, thus preventing the estrogen surge / LH surge

- The hypothalamus has PR and ER receptors - allowing for negative feedback regulation of GnRH

- GnRH stimulates production of LH - which stimulates theca interna cells to produce progesterone and androstenedione, and FSH - which stimulates the production of 17β-estradiol
