Menstruation occurs usually every 28days. A woman releases an egg from one of her ovarys and it travels through the fallopian tubes and waits to be fertilised by the male sperm. If this doesnt occur the uterus sheds its lining, and that's how a woman/girl gets her "monthly period" (menstruation)

i hope this was helpful.

Menstruation is triggered by a drop in estrogen and progesterone levels, which signals the shedding of the uterine lining.

The decrease in hormone levels causes the blood vessels in the uterus to constrict, leading to the shedding of the uterine lining, resulting in menstruation.

Why does it make sense that the levels of estrogen and progesterone are low in the blood during menstruation?

During menstruation, the levels of estrogen and progesterone are low because the hormonal support for the uterine lining has diminished. After ovulation, if fertilization does not occur, the corpus luteum degrades, leading to a decrease in these hormones. This drop triggers the shedding of the uterine lining, resulting in menstruation. Essentially, low levels of these hormones signal the body to reset the menstrual cycle.
