The menstrual cycle is a (generally) 28 day cycle in which the fertilized egg is released through the ovaries and out the vulva. When an egg isn’t fertilized by a sperm, the walls of the uterus shed giving females a period. Bleeding is generally around 7 days but varies from individual to individual. Ovulation happens when the egg is being released and is ready to be fertilized, making it a good time to try and conceive a child.
