Accepted Answer

The menstrual cycle is divided into three main phases: the follicular phase, ovulatory phase, and luteal phase. The follicular phase is characterized by the development of follicles in the ovaries. The ovulatory phase is when ovulation, the release of an egg from the ovary, occurs. The luteal phase follows ovulation and is marked by the secretion of progesterone from the corpus luteum, preparing the uterus for potential pregnancy.
