Luteinized theca cells respond to the low LH concentrations after ovulation by producing more progesterone.

LH水平降黄素化内膜细胞生成更多黄体酮。

Yeah, her hormone levels...estrogen, progesterone are sky high.

啊，她激素水平...雌激素，孕激素都极高。

These are estrogen and progesterone in women and testosterone in men.

在女性是雌激素和孕酮，男性则是睾酮。

为了腾出空间，被称为孕酮和松弛素激素对肌肉发出放松信号。

LH binds to LH receptors on theca cells and they make progesterone and androstenedione.

LH与卵泡内膜细胞上LH受体结合，产生黄体酮和雄烯二酮。

In females, the theca cells respond to luteinizing hormone by producing progesterone and androstenedione.

在女性，卵泡膜细胞对促黄体生成素产生反应，从而产生孕酮和雄烯二酮。

Progesterone is produced by the empty follicle in the ovary.

黄体酮是由卵空卵泡产生。

For a start, oestrogen is anabolic, building up muscle, while progesterone is catabolic, breaking it down.

首先，雌激素是合成代谢，可以增强肌肉，而黄体酮是分解代谢，可以分解肌肉。

The menstrual cycle is controlled by two main hormones: estrogen and progesterone.

月经周期由两种主要激素控制：雌激素和黄体酮。

LH causes the mature egg to be released from the ovary and stimulates the release of progesterone.

黄体生成素成熟卵子从卵释放出来，并刺激黄体酮释放。

If the egg is not fertilized by a sperm, estrogen and progesterone levels slowly decrease.

如果卵子没有受精，雌激素和孕激素水平逐渐下降。

In males, there's a decrease in testosterone, and in females there's a decrease in progesterone and estrogen.

在男性，睾酮水平降；在女性，孕酮和雌激素水平降。

So estrogen builds up the uterus lining, and progesterone maintains it during the second half of the menstrual cycle.

所以雌激素形成子宫内膜，而黄体酮在月经周期后半段维持子宫内膜。

Specifically, ovulation doesn't occur, so progesterone levels don't rise enough to inhibit LH production.

具体来说就是没有发生排卵，因此孕激素水平升高不足，没能抑制LH产生。

You release a hormone called progesterone, which is progestational, it gets the uterus ready.

你释放一种叫做黄体酮激素，它具有孕激素作用，它让子宫做好准备。

Additionally, because there is post-ovulatory rise and fall in progesterone, there is no menstruation.
