How does the Hypothalamus affect the Menstrual Cycle?

The hypothalamus controls the menstrual cycle through the release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). GnRH stimulates the pituitary gland to release luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). These hormones, in turn, act on the ovaries to regulate the production of estrogen and progesterone, which are crucial for the menstrual cycle.
