The correct answer is

Around 28 days

The menstrual cycle is the monthly reproductive cycle in human females, starting at menarche (puberty) and stopping at menopause.

It typically lasts about 28 days (normal range roughly 21–35 days): menstrual phase (days 1–5), follicular phase, ovulation around day 14, and the luteal phase.

About 7 days is closer to the duration of menstrual bleeding, and day 14 is the approximate time of ovulation, not the full cycle; 60 days is far longer than a normal cycle.

Hence, the answer is Around 28 days.
