The menstrual cycle, which occurs on average every 28 or 29 days in female monkeys, is the term for their reproductive cycle. The anterior pituitary gland produces the hormone known as LH (Luteinizing Hormone). A sudden release of LH is referred to as an LH surge, and it often happens on the 14th day of the cycle when oestrogen levels are high enough. The Graafian follicle of an egg undergoes a series of changes in response to this surge, which causes the follicle to rupture and release an ovum.(ovulation).

 

The final answer is Normally, an LH surge occurs on the 14th day of a normal human menstrual cycle.
