No, a woman cannot menstruate without a womb. Menstruation occurs when the lining of the uterus sheds each month through the cervix and vagina. Without a womb, there is no lining to shed, so menstruation cannot occur.


What is the relationship between oestrogen concentration in the blood and the thickness of the lining of the womb?

I think that if the relationship between oestrogen and the blood lining is that if it is low, there is a stop in the progression of blood lining and lining begins to break down, as oestrogen causes progesterone hormone that creates the thick mucus lining around the uterus and maintain it. When there is high concentration of oestrogen in the blood, it can help in maintaining the lining and creating the mucus in the uterus. Sometimes if there is a real high concentration in the blood, like when you take a contraceptive, it can cause blood clots to happen.


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.

Oestrogen & Progesterone are produced by the Ovaries. Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) & Lutenizing Hormone (LH) are produced by the pituitary gland at the base of the brain.

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
