Ovulation is the cyclical process, in which a female produces ova (eggs) in an ovary (ovarian gland/follicle), and discharges them toward the uterus via a fallopian tube in preparation for conception (about mid-cycle). This process is the underlying function of the menstrual cycle, not the bleeding which actually ends the cycle.
