The blood you lose during your period is the lining of your uterus. On day 28 (for most women), if you have not become pregnant, the lining of your uterus starts to shed.On day 14 (for most women), one of your ovaries will release an egg, which will make its way through a fallopian tube and will eventually make its way to your uterus (called ovulation).After your period is over, the lining of your uterus starts to build up again to become a thick and spongy ‘nest’ in preparation for a possible pregnancy.This is when your uterus starts shedding the lining it has built up over the last 28 days. Day one of your cycle is the first day of your period.
When pregnancy doesn't occur, the egg is absorbed back into the body and the thick lining in the uterus is shed, this is your period. An egg is produced, the lining of the uterus thickens up, hormones prepare the vagina and the cervix to accept and support sperm. Messages and hormones are being passed around the body to prepare it for a possible pregnancy. Every month there is a complex interaction between the pituitary gland in the brain, the ovaries and the uterus (or womb).

Your menstrual cycle is the time between one period and the next.
In most women, the ‘menstrual cycle’ happens over 28 days, starting with the first day of your period. With each cycle your body prepares the lining of your uterus to create the ideal environment for a possible pregnancy.
