2 The Menstrual Cycle

3 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
The Menstrual Cycle The series of changes in the female reproductive system that includes producing an egg and preparing the uterus for receiving it is known as the menstrual cycle. The entire menstrual cycle repeats about once a month. Section 38.1 Summary – pages

4 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
Oviduct The Menstrual Cycle Uterus Once an egg has been released during ovulation, the part of the follicle that remains in the ovary develops into a structure called the corpus luteum. Egg released Ovary Follicle ruptures Corpus luteum Vagina Egg Follicle Section 38.1 Summary – pages

5 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
Oviduct The Menstrual Cycle Uterus The corpus luteum secretes the hormones estrogen and progesterone. Egg released Ovary Follicle ruptures Corpus luteum Vagina Egg Follicle Section 38.1 Summary – pages

6 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
The Menstrual Cycle Progesterone causes changes to occur in the lining of the uterus that prepare it for receiving a fertilized egg. The menstrual cycle begins during puberty and continues for 30 to 40 years, until menopause. At menopause, the female stops releasing eggs and the secretion of female hormones decreases. Section 38.1 Summary – pages

7 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
The Menstrual Cycle If the egg released at ovulation is not fertilized, the lining of the uterus is shed, causing some bleeding for a few days. The entire menstrual cycle can be divided into three phases: the flow phase, the follicular phase, and the luteal phase. Section 38.1 Summary – pages

8 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
LH Progesterone Estrogen Hormone levels FSH Follicle maturation Corpus luteum Ovulation Thickness of uterine lining Days Flow phase Flow phase Follicular phase Luteal phase Ovulation Section 38.1 Summary – pages

9 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
The Menstrual Cycle The timing of each phase of the menstrual cycle correlates with hormone output from the pituitary gland, changes in the ovary, and changes in the uterus. Section 38.1 Summary – pages

10 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
Flow Phase Day 1 of the menstrual cycle is the day menstrual flow begins. Menstrual flow is the shedding of blood, tissue fluid, mucus, and epithelial cells that made up the lining of the uterus, the endometrium. Section 38.1 Summary – pages

11 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
LH Progesterone Estrogen Hormone levels FSH Follicle maturation Corpus luteum Ovulation Thickness of uterine lining Days Flow phase Flow phase Follicular phase Luteal phase Ovulation Section 38.1 Summary – pages

12 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
Flow Phase This flow passes from the uterus through the cervix and the vagina to the outside of the body. Contractions of the uterine muscle help expel the uterine lining and can cause discomfort in some females. Section 38.1 Summary – pages

13 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
Flow Phase During the flow phase, the level of FSH in the blood begins to rise, and another follicle in one of the ovaries begins to mature as meiosis of the prophase I cell proceeds. Section 38.1 Summary – pages

14 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
Follicular Phase The second phase of the menstrual cycle is more varied in length than the other phases. In a 28-day cycle, it lasts from about day 6 to day 14. As the follicle containing a primary oocyte continues to develop, it secretes estrogen, which stimulates the repair of the endometrial lining of the uterus. Section 38.1 Summary – pages

15 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
LH Progesterone Estrogen Hormone levels FSH Follicle maturation Corpus luteum Ovulation Thickness of uterine lining Days Flow phase Flow phase Follicular phase Luteal phase Ovulation Section 38.1 Summary – pages

16 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
Hypothalamus Releasing hormone Pituitary FSH LH Hormone pathways to ovaries Stimulation Inhibition Ovary Growing follicle Corpus luteum Increased estrogen at midcyle stimulates LH secretion, which leads to ovulation. After ovulation, increases in progesterone inhibit FSH, LH secretion. Estrogen Progesterone, some estrogen Ovulation Section 38.1 Summary – pages

17 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
Follicular Phase LH Progesterone Estrogen Hormone levels FSH Follicle maturation Corpus luteum Ovulation Thickness of uterine lining Days Flow phase Flow phase Follicular phase Luteal phase Ovulation Section 38.1 Summary – pages

18 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
Luteal Phase LH Progesterone Estrogen Hormone levels FSH Follicle maturation Corpus luteum Ovulation Thickness of uterine lining Days Flow phase Flow phase Follicular phase Luteal phase Ovulation Section 38.1 Summary – pages

19 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
Luteal Phase Progesterone increases the blood supply of the endometrium, causing it to accumulate lipids and tissue fluid. These changes correspond to the arrival of a fertilized egg. Section 38.1 Summary – pages

20 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
Luteal Phase Unfertilized egg If the egg is not fertilized, the rising levels of progesterone and estrogen from the corpus luteum cause the hypothalamus to inhibit the release of FSH and LH. Ovulation Menstruation occurs Section 38.1 Summary – pages

21 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
Luteal Phase Unfertilized egg The corpus luteum degenerates and stops secreting progesterone or estrogen. Ovulation Menstruation occurs As hormone levels drop, the thick lining of the uterus begins to shed. Section 38.1 Summary – pages

22 Section 38.1 Summary – pages 995-1004
Luteal Phase Fertilized egg If fertilization occurs the endometrium begins secreting a fluid rich in nutrients for the embryo. Ovulation Embryo implants in uterine wall Menstruation does not occur Section 38.1 Summary – pages
