PART I: Reproductive Anatomy & Physiology
1. A nursing student is studying the menstrual cycle. Which of the following hormones is
responsible for the proliferation of the endometrial lining during the follicular phase?
A) Progesterone
B) Estrogen
C) Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
D) Luteinizing hormone (LH)
Answer: B) Estrogen
Rationale: Estrogen, secreted by developing follicles, stimulates proliferation (thickening) of the
endometrial lining during the follicular phase. Progesterone (A) stabilizes the endometrium during
the luteal phase. FSH (C) stimulates follicle development. LH (D) triggers ovulation.
