Fill in the blаnks belоw with the wоrd оr short phrаse thаt best completes the idea in the phrase/sentence. Each blank has only one best answer. Each blank contains a unique answer - please do not repeat a word/phrase. For long hormone names, it is acceptable to use an acronym/abbreviation if the textbook used that same acronym/abbreviation. Otherwise, please spell out all words completely. During the uterine cycle, shedding and release of the endometrium marks the beginning of the [phase1] phase, typically lasting 3-5 days. In the next phase, called the [phase2] phase, the endometrium thickens in response to increased levels of [hormone1], typically lasting around 9 days. This phase ends at ovulation, at which time the endometrium produces substances that promote attachment of a developing embryo during the [phase3] phase, lasting approximately 14 days. (Hint: This phase corresponds with the luteal phase in the ovarian cycle.) In the absence of pregnancy, levels of the hormone [hormone2] rapidly decline, causing the thickened endometrium to once again shed and be discharged from the vagina.
