The key event in the process of ovulation is the Pre-ovulatory surge in Luteinising Hormone (LH). This surge in LH is required to iniciate the downstream processes of ovulation. These processes result in increased follicular pressure and weakening of the follicle wall eventually leading to follicle rupture and the release of the Oocyte from the ovary surface into the oviduct.
