The Sugar Act. In 1764, Parliament passed the Sugar Act to counter smuggling of foreign sugar and to establish a British monopoly in the American sugar market. The act also allowed royal officials to seize colonial cargo with little or no legal cause.
The luteal phase is the second half of your menstrual cycle. It starts the day after ovulation and ends the day before you get your menstruation period. The length is usually consistent each cycle. The average luteal phase length is typically 14 days long. But normal ranges are from 10 to 16 days in length. If it is shorter than 10 days then you may have a luteal phase defect. The average 14 days is where the two week part of two week wait (2WW) comes from. The 2 week wait is another term used to describe this phase.
The luteal phase is the latter phase of the menstrual cycle (in humans and a few other animals) or the earlier phase of the estrous cycle (in other placental mammals). It begins with the formation of the corpus luteum and ends in either pregnancy or luteolysis. The main hormone associated with this stage is progesterone, which is significantly higher during the luteal phase than other phases of the cycle. The opposite of the luteal phase, the rest of the two weeks, is called the follicular phase. After ovulation, the anterior pituitary hormones FSH and LH cause the remaining parts of the dominant follicle to transform into the corpus luteum.
