Understanding Your Menstrual Cycle

The menstrual cycle is a complex process influenced by hormones. While the average cycle is 28 days, it can vary significantly from woman to woman. Factors like stress, diet, and underlying health conditions can affect its length and regularity.

• Menstrual Phase: This is when you experience bleeding, typically lasting from 2 to 7 days.
• Follicular Phase: The lining of the uterus thickens in preparation for a possible pregnancy.
• Ovulation: An egg is released from the ovaries, marking the most fertile time of the month. Use our ovulation calculator to help determine when you are most fertile.
• Luteal Phase: If the egg is not fertilized, the uterine lining sheds, leading to menstruation and the start of a new cycle.
