i don't know. can you tell me.

Actual answer> The follicle or polar cells (3 unwanted cells from miosis) detach from the ovum (egg) which is ovulation. The follicle then becomes the corpus luteum which produces the hormone progesterone, this maintains the uterus lining preventing it from being shed.

Why no mense during pregnancy?

When the woman is not pregnant, her body is aware that there is no egg that has been fertilized (by sperm/semen through sex). Once her body recognizes this, her body naturally sheds it's uterine lining (thus creating the leaking of blood through the vagina). When a woman becomes pregnant, this fertilized egg attaches itself to the uterus. The female body is aware of this and knows not to shed the uterine lining.
