Question

what is the main function of corpus luteum​

Answer 1

Answer:

The corpus luteum is responsible for producing the hormone progesterone, which stimulates the uterus to thicken even more in preparation for implantation of a fertilized egg. The hormone estrogen is also elevated during this time to prepare the uterus for implantation.

Answer 2

Answer:

The corpus luteum secretes progesterone, which is a steroid hormone responsible for the decidualization of the endometrium (its development) and maintenance, respectively. It also produces relaxin, a hormone responsible for softening of the pubic symphysis which helps in parturition.
