Excerpt from the Course
[The main purpose of the menstrual cycle is to prepare a woman’s body for the possibility of pregnancy. Miraculously, the menstrual process is completely regulated by hormones.
Here is how it works:
- The ovaries release two of the most important female hormones: Estrogen and Progesterone.
- Estrogen is the hormone that sends signals to the uterus to grow the uterine lining that sheds after each cycle and Progesterone is the hormone that sends signals to the body and uterus to help prepare for and support pregnancy. Simply put, Estrogen regulates the menstrual cycle and Progesterone regulates pregnancy.]
By the end of this course, you will have a healthy understanding of the anatomy of the female reproductive system, the menstrual cycle, and the phases of the menstrual cycle.
