During the menstrual cycle,when conception occurs:

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When conception occurs, the fertilized ovum implants in the uterine lining, known as the endometrium. The uterine lining is not shed, as it would be in a regular menstrual cycle if conception did not occur. The body does not expel eight ounces of menstrual blood, as this varies from person to person. The endometrium is not expelled through the cervix when conception occurs. Additionally, the production of progesterone does not necessarily stop when conception occurs, as it is important for maintaining the pregnancy.
