| Menstrual Cycle | Each cycle leads to one the release of one ovum. This doesn't occur if pregnant, after menopause, pre-puberty, or severely malnutritioned. Usually 28 days, counting starts from the first day of bleeding. Divided into phases. |
| Secretion Phase | (Days 15-28) Controlled by Progesterone, mucus & blood vessels increase. At the end of this phase, progesterone decreases and arteries contract due to drying, ischemia follows & tissue damage & bleeding starts again. |
| Phase of Proliferation | (Days 5-15) Controlled by Estrogen. Body temperature increases. Functional layer grows, glands get bigger, spiral arteries form. Ovulation occurs around day 13-14. |
| Phase of Desquamation and Regeneration | [menstruation] (Days 1-4) Progesterone disappears & Estrogens Increases. Endometrium is shed (bleeding). Epithelium & connective tissue of the functional layer regenerate from the basal layer & the wound is closed. |
| Salpingitis | Inflammation (pelvic inflammatory disease, PID) and infection (gonorrhea and clamydial) of the Fallopian tubes, may lead to loss of the epithelium, this may interfere with fertilization which may lead to sterility. |
| Ischemia | restriction of blood supply to tissues |
| Luteal Phase | [2nd half of menstrual cycle (secretory phase)] Progesterone increases which causes endometrial layer growth. |
| Follicular Phase | [1st half of menstrual cycle (menstruation & proliferation phase)] Estrogen Increases. Gonadotropin Hormones (FSH & LH) of the piturary gland act on the follicles of the ovary to maturate (then to release the ovum in the middle of the cycle). |
