Proliferative phase of the female menstrual cycle?
The proliferative phase of the menstrual cycle is the phase following ovulation and before menstruation. During this phase the uterine lining develops in order to support the growth of the embryo if the woman falls pregnant.
Which ovarian phase corresponds with the proliferative phase in the uterus?
The ovarian phase that corresponds with the proliferative phase in the uterus is the follicular phase. It is characterized by follicle development in the ovary and an increase in estrogen levels, which triggers the thickening of the endometrial lining in the uterus in preparation for implantation.
