In the follicular phase, the biochemical and physiological events (secretions of LH, FSH and estrogen) support the growth of the follicle (the cell complex that surrounds and nurtures the egg) in the ovary and build up the lining of the uterus to receive a fertilized egg. At mid-cycle, when the egg is ready, a chemical signal -- a surge of LH and FSH -- tells the ovary to release the egg. This stage is called ovulation, and is the optimum time for fertilization to take place. The follicular phase basically is a cluster of cells that surrounds an egg and prepares it for release into the human female reproductive tract.
Palpable uterine artery pulsation refers to a medical doctor feeling the uterine artery when your heart beats. Studies are underway to determine if a palpable uterine artery is a possible indicator of early pregnancy.
It means you can feel the pulses of blood flowing through your main artery in the uterus (uterine artery) just by touching the area where the uterine artery passes through.

I think it's called Corpus Luteum
Gynecologists often tell women after exploratory surgery or hysterectomy that the blood supply to their uterus consisted of large veins and arteries. It is not a problem or concern, there is no reason to worry about it.
A mature follicle will be released during ovulation and travel to the uterus. If is it fertilized, then it will implant in the uterine wall. If it does not then it will be passed out of the body during the menstrual cycle.
As the follicle grows it produces certain hormones which reactive uterine wall to become thickened and to be supplied with a lot of blood. This change is a kind of preparation of the uterus to receive the fertilized egg and to provide for the development of the future embryo
The corpus luteum, formed from the remnants of the ovarian follicle after ovulation, is the structure that releases progesterone to increase the vascularity of the uterine lining. Progesterone helps prepare the uterus for potential embryo implantation by promoting a rich blood supply to the endometrium.
The ovarian cycle refers to the changes that occur in the ovaries, including follicle development, ovulation, and corpus luteum formation. The uterine cycle, on the other hand, involves the changes in the endometrium lining of the uterus in preparation for implantation of a fertilized egg. The ovarian cycle is responsible for the production of eggs, while the uterine cycle provides a suitable environment for embryo implantation.
During ovulation, the ovum is released due to rupture of the Mature or Graafian follicle. The unfertilized ovum is captured by the fimbria of the tuba uterina or oviduct at the infundibulum region.
Follicle development occurs in several stages: primordial follicle, primary follicle, secondary follicle, preantral follicle, antral follicle, and mature (Graafian) follicle. Each stage involves specific changes in the follicle and oocyte as they mature towards ovulation.

Near the ovary you have fimbriated end of the Fallopian tube. It take in the ovum inside. Then you have cilia in the Fallopian tube to push the ovum towards the uterus.
Thickening and vascularization of the uterine lining, also known as the proliferative phase, is initiated during the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle. This phase occurs before ovulation and is characterized by rising levels of estrogen that stimulate the growth of the endometrial lining in preparation for a potential pregnancy.
The uterine pedicle contains the uterine artery, uterine vein, and uterine ligaments that attach the uterus to surrounding structures. It is an essential structure for providing blood supply and support to the uterus.
