The Menstrual Cycle

We have learned that, on average, an ovary releases only one egg


every 28 days. Now, what controls this timing? Hormones control
many of the changes in the reproductive system. Remember that
hormones are chemicals that affect certain body organs. The monthly
changes that take place in the female reproductive system are called
menstruation. This cycle occurs every month from the first onset
which could happen when a female is between 10 to 13 years old. The
monthly cycle continues for about 40 years. Refer to Figure 11 for
clearer explanation of the different events that take place in the cycle.
