The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the female gonad over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the ovarian follicle over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Increase in size of primordial follicles including proliferation and shape changes of granulosa and/or theca cells until oocyte is surrounded by one layer of cuboidal shaped granulosa cells (primary follicle). A process involved in the sexual cycle seen in female mammals, with physiologic changes in the endometrium that recur at regular intervals during the reproductive years. The type of sexual cycle seen in female mammals, with physiologic changes in the endometrium that recur at regular intervals during the reproductive years. Any process pertinent to the generation and maintenance of rhythms in the physiology of an organism.
