The Menstrual Cycle
Menstruation: The period—the shedding of the uterine lining. Levels of estrogen and progesterone are low
The follicular phase: The time between the first day of the period and ovulation. Estrogen rises as an egg prepares to be released
The proliferative phase: After the period, the uterine lining builds back up again
Ovulation: The release of the egg from the ovary, mid-cycle. Estrogen peaks just beforehand, and then drops shortly afterwards
The luteal phase: The time between ovulation and before the start of menstruation, when the body prepares for a possible pregnancy. Progesterone is produced, peaks, and then drops
The secretory phase: The uterine lining produces chemicals that will either help support an early pregnancy or will prepare the lining to break down and shed if pregnancy doesn’t occur

a long, coiled tube that rests on the backside of each testicle

Semen, which contains sperm, is expelled through the end of the penis when the man reaches sexual climax. When the penis is erect, the flow of urine is blocked from the urethra, allowing only semen to be ejaculated at orgasm
