Why can't you have a period when your pregnant?
Menstruation is caused by the break-down of the lining of the womb. This happens when no egg implants. Once an eggs is fertilised it attaches to the womb's lining, so the lining does not break down.
What happens to a baby in the womb if the mother is addicted to herion?
therefore the baby may suffer from some side effects such as being born underweight
Can you have a menstrual cycle after you conceive?
No, because the egg has been fertilised and the womb lining is needed for the baby, so will not break down. Instead, when you period is due, you may have spotting which is when the fertilised egg implants in the womb lining
What happens to the cell after fertilisation?
It forms a baby in the womb.
What is the fluid called around the baby while in the womb?
The liquid that surrounds the baby in the womens uterus is call Amniotic fluid. This protects the baby when it is in the mothers womb. When your waters break this is what flushes out of the womens vagina. This happens because the baby is a about to be born and no longer needs this fluid to potect it.
What are the functions of the womb?
The womb is where the baby/fetus is able to grow inside the female. The fetus can then collect nutrients from the mother via the umbilical cord, which connects the fetus with the endometrial lining.
What is thickening of the womb please?
Thickening of the womb happens every month during a woman's monthly cycle. It is when the lining of the womb builds up so that if the egg is fertilised it will have a soft, spongy lining to implant into and will be protected throughout the pregnancy If the egg is not fertilised, the lining breaks down as it is not needed, and that is what a period is The thickening of the womb is caused by hormones that trigger it to thicken
Can a woman without a womb menstruate?
No. Menstruation is the shedding of the lining of the womb. No womb, no shedding.
How long does your period last after having a baby?
After having a baby, you don't have a period, you have what is called lochia. Lochia is when the built-up womb lining breaks down after the baby is born because it is no longer needed. Because there is such a huge amount of womb-lining to break down, there is quite a lot of blood and it can last a while. Generally, there is less bleeding if you have a vaginal birth because a lot of the blood gets squeezed out with the baby, but in a caesarean it doesn't. Lochia can last around a month, although for some people it only lasts about 2 weeks
Why are you having your period?
Every month, a woman's womb creates a lining of blood and tissue and her body releases an egg. If sexual intercourse occurs and the woman becomes pregnant, the lining of the womb her body has created will cushion and protect the developing baby. However, if she does not become pregnant, the lining will lose its nutrients and die. These dead blood cells must then be passed out of the body along with the egg and this is a period. Once the lining of the womb has broken down and passed out of the body the cycle can begin again.
Why do you have your period?
A women or teen girl at a certain time of month has their lining in their womb cleaned (which is the blood) So in a way your body is preapering to have a baby
Can you here the baby crying in your stomach?
No, you can't hear a baby crying in the womb. There is no air in the womb. The baby does not yet use his lungs to breathe. He takes his (or her) first breath when he is born, i.e. no longer in the womb. The baby can hear sounds while he is still in the womb - music is good for him, specially Mozart. Arguing, which he can also hear, is not so good. When he is born he will recognise the sound of his mother's voice.
