what happens in the uterus and the ovaries
Events in the Uterus & Ovary in the cycle; what the woman observes. During each menstrual cycle, a cycle of events occurs simultaneously in both the uterus and ovary termed the âuterine cycleâ and the âovarian cycleâ respectively. During the âuterine cycleâ the endometrium, (lining of the womb) is prepared for a possible pregnancy. During the âovarian cycleâ an immature ovum, (egg, primordial follicle) develops in the ovary and when it is mature it is released into the outer end of the fallopian tube at ovulation.
