The relationship between ovulation and estradiol is established by the fact that a rise in estradiol triggers the LH surge that leads to ovulation [1], [2], and that ovulation subsequently stimulates the ovaries to secrete estradiol [3]. Additionally, peak serum levels of estradiol are observed in the days following ovulation [4], [5], [6].
