Understanding the Menstrual Cycle

This video goes through the hormonal and physiological changes that occur during the menstrual cycle.
CORRECTION FSH does not start the development of the follicles. The follicles are constantly developing from primordial follicles to primary follicles to secondary follicles. FSH stimulates further development of a number of these into mature follicles at the start of the menstrual cycle (rather than initiating the development as the video suggests).

It really makes you question the point of our professors when we get better content online...

[@ZeroToFinals]

Haha I'll take that as a compliment. Glad you like it!

[@dimkacracker]

it's because we can pause and think about it. Try watching a video w/o pausing once.

[@smaranikakar281]

Thank you.... It's really helpful....

[@daniellamoreno3616]

No kidding thanks gosh for CZcams.
When I was in school this didnt exist just more book reading or encyclopedias.

[@solomonakinogbe8434]

After getting confused reading two different books on this very topic, I had a solid understanding of the whole cycle in just 15 minutes.

[@ZeroToFinals]

thats so cool!

[@theclock...]

Mee too..

[@nova9672]

This video got me through medical school. I never understood the mestrual cycle until this video.

[@ZeroToFinals]

glad to help!

[@Lifenutshell]

Same here I couldn’t understand it before thank you dr Thomas bless you

[@alanna4148]

Wow. I just watched multiple videos describing this exact topic with millions of views and THIS is hands down the absolute BEST VIDEO describing the menstrual cycle. It's so detailed and the picture animations are perfect!! Bless you!! THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@ivynjoroge3123]

The video is so easy to understand. Also love the inclusion of the visual diagrams and graphs!

[@ellelean1332]

I can't belive this video only has 2,759 views, should be more than this!

Hii
Oops here I drops my pencil
Would you mind me if I draw your attention small??

[@funmiade575]

I have been binge watching your videos. Thank you so much for simplifying these concepts.

[@alexustrujillo2100]

This is phenomenal, thank you for recapping and using the final chart which is hard to understand otherwise! No it is easy to see it as a stepwise process!

[@meowismeify]

Thank you so much for this! This cycle has always confused me until this video. I watch a few other videos on this topic but yours is the best!

[@joychuafitness8771]

So clear! You made it so simple to understand and just the main points I needed. Thank you!

[@nachannachle2706]

As a woman due to undergo IVF in a few weeks, I have to say that this video is simply BRILLIANT.
I now know what all these hormonal injections on my medical plan are about, and it feels empowering.
Thanks!

[@AngelVazquez-hf9qu]

I´ve always have trouble understanding the cycle, but you made it so easy to follow, thank you so much!

[@nadiasultana6805]

Take gratitude from the core of my heart. Thank you so much!

[@jedmoraleda995]

Drowned myself in textbooks and barely understood anything, while a few minutes into the video and already many things start to make sense.

[@gem1900]

thank you so much! my teacher did such a crappy job of explaining this but it makes so much sense now! makes me question our schooling system when one 10 minute youtube video teaches me more than 5 hour long classes put together...

[@gwynethhunger1262]

this is absolutely the most helpful video explaining the menstrual cycle! finally after 12314 other videos i have watched...

[@sarahyoung3106]

Thank you for this video, it was so handy and informational! Love all the drawing and diagrams, helped to make this topic make much more sense! As a young woman who didn’t grow up with a bunch of women’s health knowledge, this helped me understand what’s going on and how our bodies go through hormonal changes. Keep up the great work 🙌🏼

[@nightlythoughts4701]

this is an AMAZING video. thank you so much. Super easy to understand after spending hours to learn this on my own

[@emscasabj]

[@ridwansalifu6987]

Bro~ You are a legend. Be Blessed.
I just loved how smoothly you spoke without rushing. I didn't even take notes, I grasped everything upon watching and it felt like nothing. This makes me question the point of some professors in universities 🙈🙈. Most of them just don't make any sense and I always get surprised. How is that possible?
Again, thanks for making this comprehensive video.

[@shuvarnadutta1522]
