An end of the menstrual cycle signals fertility, where a woman has eggs that can be implanted to the uterus to form a fetus after sexual reproduction. The beginning of another menstrual cycle is when the ovaries become mature and it starts to shed off matured eggs that can't be implanted within the uterus. This is a natural cycle that women have to go through every month where each period has an interval of 28-30 days.

Answer:

Menstruation marks the end of one menstrual cycle and the beginning of another.

Step-by-step explanation:

The period between the first day of a period and the first of the next period is called the menstrual cycle. That is, menstruation is the event that marks the end of one menstrual cycle and the beginning of another. The menstrual cycle is usually 28 days, but it is considered normal to last between 21 and 35 days. During the menstrual cycle, the body prepares for a possible pregnancy.

To understand what the menstrual cycle is, it is important that you know that in the first two or three years of the period it is normal for the cycles to be a little irregular. After this time, the cycles usually become more regular and, generally, after the first delivery, the cycles tend to stabilize until reaching 40-45 years. From this age on, the cycles will become irregular again before the onset of menopause.
