What are the endocrine glands involved in the menstrual cycle? What are the hormones in action?
The endocrine glands that secrete hormones involved in the menstrual cycle are the hypophysis (pituitary) and the ovaries. The hormones from adenohypophysis are FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) and LH (luteinizing hormone) and the hormones from the ovaries are estrogen and progesterone.
