      Pain is necessary and we must thank our bodies for it, because pain let us know what’s happening in our bodies. The amount of pain is what the focus should be. Pain could also keep us alive, no feeling pain might kill us faster. People are always asking for pain killers; instead of asking why I feel this way? What can I do to improve the pain? What’s my diet,? Who is there to support while I struggle with my life decisions and responsibilities in life.

      @@ZeroToFinals Hi
      I decided to revisit this video for a refresher and I have a question which I didn't before lol.
      So you mentioned the HCG produced by the foetus is what keeps the corpus luteum alive (which i get why - cos of the progesterone to maintain the lining etc etc). But once the placenta is able to produce the progesterone does the corpus luteum still need to be alive? As in later on in the pregnancy the foetus is still producing HCG which means the corpus luteum is still maintained (although there's no need since the placenta is already producing the progesterone by this point). So is the corpus luteum kept alive throughout the pregnancy then?
      I hope my question makes sense. :/

    4:45 actually there is surge in estrogen before ovulation. That signals the brain that the follicle is mature enough..There is a surge in estrogen just before ovulation. This surge in estrogen helps trigger the release of luteinizing hormone (LH), which is responsible for causing the mature follicle in the ovary to release an egg during ovulation. Estrogen levels typically rise in the days leading up to ovulation, creating a favorable environment for fertilization and conception.

    there is some miss confusion estrogen level not dip before ovulation
    the fact is estrogen level very high before ovulation as a result estrogen sends positive feedback to hypothalamus and release fsh and Lh from ant. pituitary.

    Ovulation can occur anywhere from Day 9 or 10 of the cycle (which would be fairly early) and Day 1 is the first day of your menses. If you’re TTC it’s important to know the day you ovulate because every month there’s only a 24-48 window that you can get pregnant.

      @@AgentCathy mine is day 12 or 13 normally, I temporarily froze my menstrual cycle with birth control. It depends on your body. Also you can technically get pregnant throughout your whole cycle even during your period(it’s very rare but it can happen) however your best chance to get pregnant is during ovulation, but pregnancy can occur anytime.

    • @AgentCathy
      @AgentCathy 2 года назад

      ​@@happysloth3208 You can only get pregnant when there is an egg present. It is possible, for there to be an egg present at anytime during your cycle, but that would mean that you have ovulated while your uterus is still shedding lining, which would be extremely rare. You cannot get pregnant without having ovulated because an egg is necessary to achieve pregnancy. The bottom line is that an egg has to be there or at a bare minimum on it's way for the sperm to meet up with it, hence the 24-48 hour window. In a relatively normal cycle, a woman will ovulate around the two week mark (give or take a day or to on either end- mine was very early) and the egg stays there in the tube for 1-2 days. Once it leaves the tube without fertilization, pregnancy is not going to occur. Fertilization does not occur in the uterus.

    • @happysloth3208
      @happysloth3208 2 года назад

      @@AgentCathy yeah but everyone’s cycles are different so if you’re trying not get pregnant it’s best to exercise caution on days 12 to 17. Also there is a very small chance of getting pregnant during your period. It’s near zero on days 1 to 2, but the chance of pregnancy increases every day so theoretically someone can get pregnant even though they’re on their period. I know it’s rare but it’s always safe to assume that it’s possible when avoiding pregnancy.
