Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) promotes the development of a primary follicle and the start to the ovulation process each month. Follicle development takes approximately 14 days and ovulation occurs at that time. Just prior to ovulation, a secondary anterior pituitary gland hormone called luteinizing hormone (LH) suddenly spikes in production and leads to ovulation. During the time while the follicle is growing and developing, prior to ovulation, estrogen levels continue to rise.
