The menstrual cycle involves several hormones: Follicle Stimulating Hormone (F), Leutenizing Hormone (L), Oestrogen (O), and Progesterone (P, when not pregnant).

Write the circled symbol for EACH hormone on the graph in Figure 1 at the exact day where the hormone is at its maximum concentration during the menstrual cycle. (You may sketch in the graph lines to assist you if you wish.)
