* Folicular waves generally occur every 10-12 days, but there is variation between individual animals.
* Folicular waves generally occur every 10-12 days, but there is variation between individual animals.
* As [[The_Ovary_-_Follicles_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology|follicles]] mature, they produce Oestrogen, which is responsible for receptivity behaviour.

* Once [[The_Ovary_-_Ovulation_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology|ovulation]] has occured,luteinization occurs with the formation of a [[The_Ovary_-Corpus_Luteum_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology|corpus luteum]].
* Once [[The_Ovary_-_Ovulation_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology|ovulation]] has occured,[[The_Ovary_-_Corpus_Luteum_Formation_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology|luteinization]] occurs with the formation of a [[The_Ovary_-Corpus_Luteum_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology|corpus luteum]].
* [[The_Ovary_-Corpus_Luteum_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology|Corpus luteum]] produces progesterone.
* [[The_Ovary_-Corpus_Luteum_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology|Corpus luteum]] produces progesterone.
* Progesterone inhibits further [[The_Ovary_-_Follicles_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology|follicular development]] and triggers rejection behaviour.
