In the second half of the menstrual cycle, the body of the woman produces progesterone, which promotes the fixation of a fertilized egg in the uterus and the subsequent development of pregnancy. However, this algorithm of the menstrual cycle phases and the production of hormones can be interrupted when suffering stress, as a result of which conception does not occur.
