Menstrual cycle is a monthly series of hormonal changes leading to egg maturation and uterine preparation for a possible
pregnancy.
Menstruation is the stage of the menstrual cycle usually lasting from three to five days during which blood,some uterine
tissue, and the unfertilized egg are expelled from the uterus through the vagina.
Menopause is a period when the menstrual cycle of the human females ends,usually occuring in the 40s. A human

be Developed Four events happen during the menstrual cycle.During ovulation,the hormone called estrogen is released by the ovaries.
Estrogen causes the lining of the uterus to thicken in preparation for receiviing the mature egg cell that will be released by
the ovaries.The uterus continues to thicken to prepare itself for the growth of fertilized egg.If the mature egg is not fertilized
by a sperm cell,the lining of the uterus degrades and shed together with the unfertilized egg.The blood and tissue that lined
the uterus are released through the vagina as menstruation.After menstruation, the lining of the uterus repairs and starts to
thicken again.

B. Explain what is menstrual cycle.

Answer Key: Possible answers

A. A human female releases an egg from an ovary about once every 28 days.At the same time, certain changes in
the uterus happen in preparation for possible pregnancy.
Four eventshappen during the menstrual cycle.During ovulation,the hormone called estrogen is released by the
ovaries. Estrogen causes the lining of the uterus to thicken in preparation for receiviing the mature egg cell that
will be released by the ovaries.The uterus continues to thicken to prepare itself for the growth of fertilized egg.If
the mature egg is not fertilized by a sperm cell,the lining of the uterus degrades and shed together with the
unfertilized egg.The blood and tissue that lined the uterus are released through the vagina as menstruation.After
menstruation, the lining of the uterus repairs and starts to thicken again.

B. Menstrual cycle is when menstruation or periods come regularly. The menstrual cycle provides important
body chemicals, called hormones to keep you healthy.

 The rise and fall of levels of hormones during the month is responsible in the control of the menstrual cycle.
 The levels of estrogen, the female hormones, start to rise in the first half of the cycle.
The hormones play an important role in keeping you heathy, especially by helping you build strong
bones and keep them strong as you get older. Estrogen also makes the lining of the uterus (womb)
grow and thicken. The lining of the womb is a place that will nourish the embryo if pregnancy
occurs.
 A human female releases an egg from an ovary about once every 28 days.At the
same time, certain changes in the uterus happen in preparation for possible
pregnancy.

Phase #1- This is the menstruation phase.

This occurs when fertilization does not occur.The uterine lining begins to
break down and bleeding results. Blood, some uterine tissue and the unfertilized egg
make their way out through the vagina.This is called menstrual flow.The flow lasts
from 3 to 7 days.It marks the beginning of the next menstrual cycle. As menstruation
is going on, a new egg is starting to mature witin the ovary.

Phase #2- The lining of the uterus becomes thin after menstruation.An egg in the
ovary continues to mature. Just before the mid-cycle, the mature eggs moves to the
surface of the ovary.

Phase #3- The mature egg is released.This period is called ovulation. The mature egg
then travels from the ovary to the fallopin tube as it goes to the uterus.Generally the
egg survives within 24-48 hours.The process of fertilization may take place.

Phase #4- The lining of the uterus called the endometrium becomes thicker in
preparation for implantation of the fertilized egg.If fertilization takes place,the lining
of the uterus stays in place. Likewise,no new eggs are released.If fertilization does
not take place,menstruation happens.The next menstrual cycle is then about to
begin.
