The level of FSH falls after ovulation. Why is the level of FSH no longer needed at a level after this time?

Answer:

I'm just in middle school but this is kind of hard I would say When menopause is imminent, the production of the follicle stimulating hormone speeds up in an attempt to rescue estrogen, which is waning drastically. When a woman is getting close to menopause, her hormones begin to fluctuate wildly and at times her body is no longer producing sufficient amounts of estrogen. When this happens, the brain detects that estrogen levels are sub-par and it instructs the pituitary gland, which is located at the base of the brain, to start producing FSH.

Explanation: :) hope it helped
