*There is an increase in the pigment lutein within the leteal cells.
*There is an increase in the pigment lutein within the leteal cells.
*There is development of smooth endoplasmic reticulum within luteal cells due to the increase in steroid production.

*The extent to which the corpus luteum is vascularised may determine its functional capabilities as a large blood supply is required to provide adequate cholosterol for [[Endocrine_System_-_Ovaries_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology#Progesterone|Progesterone]] synthesis.

Control of [[The_Ovary_-Corpus_Luteum_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology|corpus luteum]] formation and development as well as the production of [[Endocrine_System_-_Ovaries_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology#Progesterone|Progesterone]] by luteal cells is regulated principally by Luteinising Hormone.
