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. Disruption of theca cell layer releasing follicular fluid and/or the oocyte.
