    The document discusses feedback mechanisms in the female reproductive system that are important for maintaining homeostasis. It defines feedback mechanisms as processes where the level of one substance influences the level of another. Positive feedback mechanisms stimulate an increase in hormone levels, like how estrogen stimulates production of GNRH and LH. Negative feedback mechanisms inhibit or decrease hormone levels, such as how progesterone inhibits production of GNRH and LH. Feedback mechanisms help keep the reproductive system in a balanced state of homeostasis.

    FEEDBACK

    MECHANISMS
    OF THE FEMALE RS
    FEEDBACK
    MECHANISMS
    It is the process through
    which the level of one
    substance (hormones)
    influences the level of
    another substance.
    FEEDBACK
    MECHANISMS
    Is very important for
    maintaining HOMEOSTASIS.
    HOMEOSTASIS
    State of balance within a system.

    Homeostasis, from the Greek


    words for "same" and "steady,"
    refers to any process that living
    things use to actively maintain
    fairly stable conditions necessary
    for survival.
