Question 37

Figure 1: A graph showing the changes in the thickness of the uterus lining and the level of ovarian hormones, specifically oestrogen and progesterone, during a 28-day menstrual cycle. Oestrogen levels begin to rise around day 5 and peak around day 13. The lining of the uterus is shed during days 1 to 4, and then steadily increases in thickness from day 5 to day 14. Describe the effect of oestrogen on the uterus lining from day 5 to day 14.
