42. Menstrual Cycle  *Occurs about once a month*  3 Steps:  1. Ovulation  2. Changes in uterus lining  3. Menstrual flow  *Occurs about once a month*  3 Steps:  1. Ovulation  2. Changes in uterus lining  3. Menstrual flow

43. Step 1:  Ovulation – release of a mature egg (ova) from an ovary.  (There are 2 ovaries, but usually only one of them release an egg each month)  This may not occur on the same day each month – it is not felt.  Ovulation – release of a mature egg (ova) from an ovary.  (There are 2 ovaries, but usually only one of them release an egg each month)  This may not occur on the same day each month – it is not felt.

44. Step 2:  Lining of uterus builds up with blood (oxygen & nutrients to “feed” developing baby)  Takes about 28 days to build up the lining.  Lining of uterus builds up with blood (oxygen & nutrients to “feed” developing baby)  Takes about 28 days to build up the lining.

45. Step 3:  If there is no sperm united with an egg = NOT pregnant & body doesn’t need extra lining  Menstruation – or “period”, the time during which the menstrual flow leaves the body.  Menstrual flow = unfertilized egg & lining of uterus  If there is no sperm united with an egg = NOT pregnant & body doesn’t need extra lining  Menstruation – or “period”, the time during which the menstrual flow leaves the body.  Menstrual flow = unfertilized egg & lining of uterus

46. Menstrual flow  Average length of menstrual flow = 5 days (takes a long time b/c menstrual flow leaves through cervix, or “pin-hole” opening)  The menstrual flow may NOT occur every 28 days! ESPECIALLY in teens! Your body has not practiced this routine & it may take awhile to get used to it – this is NORMAL! It may take several months before you can calculate the # of days between your periods.  It is important to remember that a female can become pregnant at ANY TIME during the menstrual cycle!  Average length of menstrual flow = 5 days (takes a long time b/c menstrual flow leaves through cervix, or “pin-hole” opening)  The menstrual flow may NOT occur every 28 days!
