The menstrual cycle

Horizontales
The lower, narrow part of the uterus that connects to the vagina. It opens during labor to allow for the passage of the baby, and it produces cervical mucus during the menstrual cycle.
A hormone produced by the corpus luteum after ovulation. It prepares the endometrium for the potential implantation of a fertilized egg and helps maintain pregnancy if fertilization occurs.
A small sac within the ovaries that contains an immature egg. During the menstrual cycle, the follicle matures and releases the egg during ovulation.
A hormone secreted by the pituitary gland that stimulates the growth of ovarian follicles during the first half of the menstrual cycle. FOLLICLE_STIMULATING_HORMONE - A hormone secreted by the pituitary gland that stimulates the growth of ovarian follicles during the first half of the menstrual cycle.
A hormone responsible for the development of female sexual characteristics and regulation of the menstrual cycle. It helps stimulate the growth of the endometrium (uterine lining) during the first half of the cycle.
The muscular canal that connects the uterus to the outside of the body. It serves as the passageway for menstrual blood, sexual intercourse, and childbirth.
The phase that occurs after ovulation, during which the ruptured follicle becomes the corpus luteum. The corpus luteum secretes progesterone to maintain the endometrium for possible implantation.
A hormone produced by the pituitary gland that triggers ovulation, the release of the mature egg from the ovarian follicle.
Verticales
The female reproductive organs that produce eggs (ova) and secrete hormones like estrogen and progesterone. They are key to the reproductive cycle.
The release of a mature egg from the ovarian follicle into the fallopian tube, typically occurring around the middle of the menstrual cycle. It is triggered by a surge in LH.
The tubes that connect the ovaries to the uterus. They are where fertilization usually occurs when sperm meets the egg.
The first phase of the menstrual cycle, starting from the first day of menstruation and lasting until ovulation. It is characterized by the growth and maturation of the ovarian follicles.
The inner lining of the uterus that thickens during the menstrual cycle in preparation for a fertilized egg. If no fertilization occurs, the endometrium sheds during menstruation.
The process where the lining of the uterus (endometrium) is shed if no fertilization has occurred. It is commonly referred to as a "period."
The organ where a fertilized egg implants and where a fetus develops during pregnancy. It has three layers: the endometrium, the myometrium, and the perimetrium.
