system
Analyze the Menstrual Cycle and Pregnancy
Preparation
Internalize the importance of hormonal control
of the ovarian cycle
OVERVIEW
The female reproductive organs include several
key structures, such as the ovaries, uterus,
vagina, and vulva. The functions of these organs
are involved in fertility, conception, pregnancy,
and childbirth.
Follicular Phase
Ovulation
Luteal Phase
Follicular Phase
Begins on the first
day of menstruation
and lasts until
ovulation, typically
around the first 14
days of a 28-day
menstrual cycle.
Ovulation
Ovulation occurs
approximately in the
middle of the
menstrual cycle,
usually around day 14
in a 28-day cycle.
Luteal Phase
After ovulation, the empty
follicle transforms into a
structure called the corpus
luteum. The corpus luteum
secretes progesterone and
some estrogen.
MENSTRUAL CYCLE
The menstrual cycle is typically divided into
three main phases.
After ovulation
(release of the egg
from the ovary)
Ruptured follicle
transforms into
corpus luteum
PREGNANCY AND
CHILDBEARING
Premenopause
Perimenopause
Menopause
Postmenopause
DYSMENORRHEA
There are two main types of dysmenorrhea:
Primary Dysmenorrhea: Usually begins 1-2 days
before menstruation and may last 2-4 days.
Secondary Dysmenorrhea: typically caused by
an underlying reproductive health issue, such
as endometriosis or uterine fibroids.
COMMON DISORDERS OF
