Question

I don't really think there's a purpose, but the only reason the menstrual cycle even occurs is because the unused, unfertilized egg has to be removed from the body in some way.

viabilty of the fertilised egg is maintained by progesterone....but this hormone in a negative feedback prevents ovulation...because no need for another ovum to be produced as aim for reproduction is already met with....
