Typically, The menstrual cycle is categorised into four phases based on their characteristics:
This phase is defined by menstruation or the shedding of the uterine lining, and initiates the monthly cycle. Hormone levels fall during this phase, which causes the endometrium—the lining of the uterus—to shed and leave the body as menstrual blood through the vagina. The common symptoms of this phase are:
The follicular phase starts after menstruation. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), produced by the pituitary gland, promotes the development of ovarian follicles during this period. Each ovarian follicle contains an immature egg. The endometrium thickens in anticipation of the possible implantation of a fertilized egg as estrogen levels rise. Here are some signs that can help you determine the second phase of your menstrual cycle:
Although it varies from woman to woman, ovulation usually happens around day 14 of the menstrual cycle. A spike in luteinizing hormone (LH) causes one of the ovarian follicles to release a mature egg during ovulation. During this stage, the egg is most fertile, with a window of around 12 to 24 hours following release for fertilization. In this phase, you can expect your peak fertility days and the following signs can indicate and help you determine when you can plan your pregnancy:

These hormones help the uterus get ready for possible embryo implantation by supporting the thicker endometrium. The uterine lining sheds and a new menstrual cycle begins if conception is unsuccessful due to a drop in hormone levels. After the ovulation phase, if you don’t conceive, then you can experience the mentioned signs and symptoms:
