I dont really think so because I have a guinea pig and she is now 2 years old (in human years) and she has not had her period. They might though and my guinea pig might just be spayed because I got her from someone else and I'm not sure if she did or not. I know dogs do but cats dont so my guess is going to be no. because in the wild, who is going to clean up the blood for the guinea pig???nobody. so probably no. thank you for asking!! i love answering questions on here.

Guinea pigs do have periods but not in the same way as humans.

The main difference is that no blood will come out of a female guinea pig whilst on its period.

Also, Guinea Pigs only have a human-like period while they are pregnant.

Guinea pigs have estrus not human menstruation. This time of their season they do bleed. Sometimes it is heavy sometimes not.

No. Sows and gilts have what is called estrous periods, not menstrual periods.

All females creatures go through some sort of period, though it is not necessarily monthly as it is in humans.
