A air front is typically a transition zone between two unique temperature/humidity. Usually, one front would push the other away (typically if summer is hot, then the warm front will push away the cold, and for the winter, if it's cold, it's the opposite).
A stationary front, on the other hand, is when there is no change in the over all temperature for the region(s), and a occluded front is when the fronts mix, where it is followed by rain and a equillibrium of the temperature, whether to a warmer or cooler overall temperature.

Explanation:
The female sex hormones produced by the ovary (estrogens and progesterone) are substances that, through the blood, will carry messages to all the organs of the female genital system (uterus, tubes and ovaries) to achieve their correct function. Aldosterone concentration normally increases at the time of ovulation and remains elevated during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. Women present during the premenstrual phase, compared to the luteal and follicular phases, an increase in body weight, due to an increase in fluid retention, this because the menstrual cycle modulates the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. High levels of estrogen and progesterone in the mid-luteal phase are associated with a greater increase in adrenal and renal hormones and retention of more volume.
