How long is the luteal phase from the menstrual period?

Many female friends are not very familiar with the menstrual period and the follicular phase. Very few people know how the entire menstrual cycle is divided into 28 days. Generally, they know that there are a few days every month when they have their period, which is the menstrual period, but very few people know the name of the follicular phase. Some friends even think that the menstrual period is the follicular phase. So, is the menstrual period the follicular phase? Let’s discuss this issue below.

The physiological cycle that women experience every month includes the menstrual period, the reproductive period (also known as the follicular period), and the follicular period.

1. Menstrual period: This period is equal to the 1st to 4th day of the menstrual cycle. The characteristics of the current endometrium are bleeding and shedding of the endometrium.

2. Reproductive period (follicular phase, early ovulation phase): This period is equal to the 5th to 14th day of the menstrual cycle, and the appreciation of the uterine wall is the main feature of this period.

3. Metabolic phase (follicular phase): This phase is equal to the 15th to 28th day of the menstrual cycle. The main feature is that the glandular ducts show metabolic status.

In addition: Under normal circumstances, the menstrual cycle is regular, each cycle lasts 28-30 days, and the ovulation period is generally about 14 days before the next menstruation. The 10 days between the 5 days before and the 4 days after the ovulation period are the ovulation period, which is also the fertile period.

Based on the above analysis of the menstrual cycle, everyone clearly understands that the menstrual period and the follicular period are two different stages, and the manifestations of each stage are different, and the issues that need to be paid attention to are also different. Secondly, at each stage, women’s emotions and sexual desires are different. I hope women can adjust themselves better.
