GlossaryEstrous Cycle

reproductive cycle in female mammals excluding humans and some primates

The estrous cycle, also known as the oestrous cycle, is the reproductive cycle in female mammals, excluding humans and some primates. It consists of a series of physiological changes that prepare the body for potential pregnancy, including phases like estrus (when the female is sexually receptive), ovulation, and luteal phases. This cycle is regulated by hormonal changes and is crucial for understanding animal breeding and reproductive health.
