An estrus cycle is a cycle similar to human menstrual cycles where animals go into "heat" and their reproductive functions peak. Since virtually all real-life animal females go through the estrus cycle, many female furries choose to consciously roleplay such a cycle when engaging in sexual roleplay. A female may roleplay being "in heat" to initiate a sexual roleplay that involves breeding and, in some cases, beginning a pregnancy. There are many female furs, however, that consciously roleplay a humanoid menstrual cycle. Females that do not consciously do either are assumed (a) to use the estrus cycle and simply not be "in heat" or (b) to use the menstrual cycle and be "on the Pill", as actual breeding and pregnancy roleplay are relatively rare.
