The Menstrual Cycle is a natural cycle women experience and that is related to the reproductive system. This cycle lasts around 28 days and it is divided into four stages or weeks. In the first stage menstruation occurs which lasts from 3 to 7 days; in the second stage or follicular phase the follicle in the ovary produce eggs which is related to hormones such as follicle-stimulating hormone; in the third stage one egg that has completely matured is released in the ovary and travel through the fallopian tube to the uterus where it can be fertilized; finally,during the fourth week if the egg is fertilized it implants and if not the hormone levels drop and this cause menstruation again. According to this, during the 3rd week or stage, "the egg travels through the fallopian tube to the uterus".
