I think I over complicated it by trying to look at all of the details.
For non-users of bcp:
Follicular: high prolactin, high IGF-1
Luteal: high progestogens, high but lesser estrogen, low androgens.
For users of bcp:
possibly similar to above, but specific hormones (LH, FSH, prolactin, estrogens, progestogens) for days 5-10 and 18-23 (both of these days are normally outside of ovulation). Also depending on the type of bcp. (Read the paper for bcp users.)
