YOGYAKARTA 4 phases of recruitment occur sequentially every month. Unfortunately, not all women understand the phases that will occur. In fact, by understanding the menstrual phase, women can monitor reproductive health, know the fertile period to plan pregnancy, and avoid pain that often appears during menstruation periods.

So, what are the 4 phases of menstruation? Compiled from various sources, see more information in the review below.

Menstruation (also known as menstruation or menstruation), is a natural biological process that occurs in women every month. Menstruation is characterized by the release of blood from the vagina caused by uterine exfoliation after no fertilization occurs.

Menstruation usually starts at the age of 12 years and lasts until entering the menopause period. Women experience menstruation because the reproductive organs are preparing for pregnancy every month. If there is no conception, the endometrium layer will decay, causing blood to come out of the vagina.

Well, the monthly menstrual cycle usually lasts for 28 days, but there is also a cycle that ranges from 21 days to 35 days, quoted from AI-Care.

The menstrual cycle is divided into four main phases, namely the menstrual, folicular, ovulation, and luteal phases. Quoted from the Better Heat page, the following are the sequences and explanations of each menstrual phase:

When you experience menstruation, the lining of the uterine wall will overflow and come out through the vagina. The menstrual blood consists of blood, mucus, and several cells from the uterine layer. The average menstrual duration lasts between 3 and 7 days.

The folicular phase begins on the first day of menstruation and lasts for about 13 to 14 days. Changes in hormone levels cause the uterine lining to thicken and follicles to begin to grow on the ovarian surface. Usually only one follicle will mature and develop into an egg.

Ovulation is the process of releasing cooked egg cells from the ovaries. This usually happens once a month, about two weeks before the next menstruation.

In the ovulation phase, egg cells are ready to be seeded by sperm in the tuba falopi channel. However, if not seeded, the egg will melt into leaves 24 hours after the ovulation is marked by the release of servical mucus from the vagina. The ovulation phase generally occurs in the 12th to 14th sex cycle of menstruation.

After ovulation, the egg will move through the tuba falopi to the uterus. The lining of the uterus will continue to thicken as preparation for pregnancy.

If there is a pregnancy, then menstruation will not occur. However, if there is no fertilization, you will experience menstruation and this cycle will start again from scratch.

Lutual phases usually occur for 11-17 days and often cause premendural syndrome (PMS) symptoms.
