The luteal phase and Follicle-stimulating hormone are linked because FSH levels during the late luteal phase influence granulosa cell activity [1], and FSH levels during the follicular phase directly impact the duration and health of the subsequent luteal phase [2]. Furthermore, both are key components in the hormonal regulation of the menstrual cycle, which is defined by the distinct roles of FSH and progesterone across the follicular and luteal phases [3].

claimIncreasing follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels during the late luteal phase lead to an increase in the number of FSH receptors and an increase in estradiol secretion by granulosa cells.
claimReduced levels of Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) during the follicular phase can lead to a shortened luteal phase and the development of a smaller corpus luteum.

claimThe follicular phase is primarily characterized by the rise of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and estrogen to develop an egg, whereas the luteal phase is characterized by the rise of progesterone to prepare for pregnancy.
