The menstrual cycle hormone-dependent 1
Note that the physiological point of view, menstruation are the result of the liquefaction of the lining of the inside of the wall of the uterus. The day the period starts is counted as the first day of the cycle. At the beginning of each cycle, some eggs begin to develop in the ovaries, and the cells that surround them. These form a kind of shell called Graafian follicle. Follicles begin to secrete estrogen. After a few days, most of the follicles stop growing. It remains generally one, which continues to grow while inside the egg continues its maturation. Under the influence of increasing estrogen levels in the blood, the lining rebuilds. The hair takes a lot of space and bomb the surface of the ovary to ovulation, which corresponds to the output of the egg from the follicle burst. The follicle becomes the corpus luteum and secretes progesterone in addition to estrogen. Under the influence of progesterone, the endometrium becomes increasing its blood vessels and glands to prepare for implantation of the egg if fertilization. In the absence of fertilization, the corpus luteum regresses, causing a stoppage of secretion of hormones. The uterine lining continues to grow, until it degenerates liquefaction. This will be the rules of the next cycle.
The impurity for religions
"If a woman is a flow, her body, blood flow, and the seven days of her impurity will be. Their evening until the unclean kangolisuttave meet anyone. Their impurity at bay all the furniture on the unclean, all is not it, she sits unclean kangolisuttave." In the Old Testament, Leviticus , Chapter 15, Verses 19 and 20 2.
For centuries, the company saw the female body as a soft body cavity, which can bleed color varied. The female body was seen as weak and imperfect. Menstrual blood, he was seen as bad, evil, improper. Pliny the Elder (23-79 B.C.), a Roman writer naturalist, author of a monumental encyclopaedia entitled Natural History affirmed that "a woman who is menstruating is sour wine in its approach ( ...) his glance tarnish the luster of mirrors, dulls the blade edge (...) in contact flax that was boiled blackened, copper is a foul odor and rust "3. How not to feel dirty about these?

According to Hippocrates (460-370 BC.), Physician and philosopher of great antiquity, menstrual blood is used to nourish the fetus, which explains the absence of menstruation during pregnancy. According to Aristotle (384-322 BC.), Women play a minor role in the design and semen would do menstrual blood covering the male seed. Hippocrates and Aristotle influenced medical knowledge for fifteen centuries. The female body is considered imperfect, weak, and blood, mysterious and harmful. It was not until the Renaissance that thoughts change. In Europe, it is believed that the design is then the union of male semen, semen and female menstrual blood.
It is only in the seventeenth century, that Regnier de Graaf discovered the existence of ovarian follicles, that is to say, a kind of hull cells in the ovary, which develops into an egg, which helped to understand the role of menstrual blood and to discover what the female seed. Finally in 1931, the Japanese discovered Kyusaku Ogino ovulation. With the work of Hermann Knauss, they conclude that ovulation occurs between the 12th and the 16th day of the end of the cycle and disseminate the calendar method as we know, also known as Method Ogino Knauss to estimate approximately the ovulating women. Shortly after, Dr. Zuck TT is the correlation between temperature and ovulation. It was not until 1955, that Rita Breault Henry Breault and Gilles develop the sympto-thermal method in Canada. This method is based on the temperature of the body at rest and the various symptoms and signs of fertility to determine the menstrual cycle and finally allow women to fully understand their cycle and access to contraception or conception natural.
