Completed paragraph:

Growth of follicles present in the ovary occurs under the effect of follicle stimulating hormone. This follicle secretes estrogen. Endometrium of uterus grows / regenerates under the effect of estrogen. Under the effect of luteinizing hormone, fully grown up follicle bursts, ovulation occurs and corpus luteum is formed from remaining part of follicle. It secretes progesterone and estrogen. Under the effect of these hormones, glands of endometrium of uterus are activated and it becomes ready for implantation.

This sequence is the menstrual cycle, which repeats every 28 to 30 days and is controlled by these four hormones: FSH, LH, estrogen and progesterone.
