Estrogen and progesterone, the main sex steroids mostly bound to plasma proteins while circulating in the
bloodstream. Only unbound estrogen and progesterone are biologically active. Gonadotrophins like Luteinizing
hormone (LH) and Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) promote ovulation and stimulate secretion of the sex
hormones-estrogen and progesterone from the ovaries. These sex steroids stimulate the target organs of the
reproductive system and inhibit as well as around the time of ovulation stimulate gonadotropin secretion. Since
estrogen circulating in the blood can negatively feed-back to reduce circulating levels of FSH and LH, most oral
contraceptives contain a synthetic estrogen, along with a progestin. The present article overviews the role of
estrogen, progesterone and their synthetic derivatives on ovarian functions.
