Progesterone and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) are both primary hormones that regulate the menstrual cycle and female reproductive system, as evidenced by [1], [2], and [3]. Their interaction is further defined by their roles in ovarian follicle development and hormonal feedback loops, where progesterone can stimulate the midcycle rise of FSH as noted in [4] and [5].

claimProgesterone stimulates the midcycle rise in follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH).
claimThe luteinizing hormone (LH) surge stimulates the luteinization of granulosa cells and the synthesis of progesterone, which is responsible for the midcycle follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) surge.
claimIn the presence of estradiol, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) stimulates the formation of luteinizing hormone (LH) receptors on granulosa cells, allowing for the secretion of small quantities of progesterone and 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP), which may exert a positive feedback on the estrogen-primed pituitary to augment LH release.

claimIn large antral follicles, the concentrations of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), estrogen, and progesterone are high, while the concentration of prolactin is low.
