Description
Three-dimensional visualization of the female endocrine system based on segmented human data. The major female sex hormones, estrogen and progesterone, are produced in the corpora lutea of the ovary. Estrogen plays a major role in the maintenance of the reproductive organs and the development of secondary sex characteristics. Progesterone plays a role in preparing and maintaining the uterus, which supports the development of an embryo.
