Menstruation

Menstruation is the routine discharge, or release, of blood and mucosal tissue from the uterus. This process occurs about once a month from the time a female reaches puberty until menopause. During pregnancy, the monthly menstrual cycle is absent while the womb nourishes the growing fetus.

How can you stop having irregular periods?

Irregular periods are very common for women under 20. As you get older it should balance out. People say birth control helps..But i'm not positive.

What causes a period to last more than 10 days?

A longer, heavier period can indicate a luteal phase defect and/or lack of progesterone. You might talk with your DR concerning a progesterone regiment. This can make your cycles easier and shorter.

Also, a heavier/longer period can indicate an early missed miscarriage. If in doubt, check with your Dr who can give you an early ultrasound and blood test to see what is going on.

It can also be a uterine fibroid.

Do lesbians involved in a relationship get their periods at the same time as the other woman?

I have been in relationships with women for over 13 years, and lived in a house full of girls when I was in college. Every time, all of us synched up in pur cycles. This theory even held true to other women I worked with. It's not a lesbian thing, it's a pheromone thing. However, I have been exclusively with the same woman for over 4 years now and NOT ONCE has our period synced up. It has actually made me irregular and our cycles seem to be chasing each other with no success...

Is it okay to bleed for a few days after having inercourse for the first time?

I believe it is normal to bleed for a few days after having intercourse for the first time, although if it bleeds for more than just a few days, I would go see a gynecologist, also this probably means that your first time was a little too rough. Try to take it easy your next few times, and use protection with enough lubrication as intercourse without enough lubrication can cause irritation and bleeding (yes, the vagina is a self-lubricating organ but when you put extra friction like a condom, you still probably want more lubrication).

What is wrong if your period finished two weeks ago and in the past few days you have brownish spotting with a little blood?

There's nothing necessarily wrong about mid cycle spotting, if this is not a common occurrence and not accompanied by other symptoms it's likely just ovulation spotting or early menstrual spotting due to a short menstrual cycle. If you're concerned then it might be a good idea for you to mention this spotting to your doctor, but if it's a one-off it's nothing to worry about.

What marks the end of one menstrual cycle and the beginning of another?

The menstrual cycle is the natural changes of the uterus and ovaries in the part of making sexual reproduction possible. The average length of each cycle is 28 days, divided into 2 parts (ovarian cycle and uterine cycle), each with 3 phases. The beginning of menstrual flow, or period, marks the end of one menstrual cycle and start of a new one.

My breast have been hurting a lot lately and when i go to the restroom I've been getting some yellowish whitish discharge what could this be?

Tender breasts can be have several causes, most notably pregnancy and fibrocystic disease. If you are not pregnant, it is probably the latter.

Fibrocystic disease can also cause a greenish discharge from the nipple, and it often gets worse just before your period.

Whitish yellow vaginal discharge can be physiologic (normal), or can be caused by vaginitis (vaginal infection, in which case you might have itching, burning, or a foul odor). Vaginal discharge can increase prior to menses, or during pregnancy.

If you are concerned about these changes, you should see your gynecologist.

If your period lasts only 2 days?

You should rephrase your question because it is difficult to understand. But if your asking if it's normal or possible to have a period for two days, then yes. You could "spot" (especially around the time of your period) or just have an irregular period.

Can B12 injections affect menstrual cycle?

Yes, a high dose of B12 can affect it. I had irregular menstruation symptoms, sometimes half a year and longer without menstruating, and -always- after a high dose of B12 (oral, not injected) the menstruation started a few hours later. This is probably caused by something called intrinsic factor - stomach cells that produce intrinsic factor are destroyed or missing, without them you can't absorb B12, no matter if your diet includes more or less B12. Only very high doses may get through (or injected B12), these high doses are not present in ANY food.

As soon as your B12 storage is emptied (B12 can be stored in the body for 5-12 years or so), symptoms of B12 deficiency occur, it leads to pernicious anaemia,

means that the production of red blood cells is defect, blood cells won't divide any more, you start to have less, but huge red blood cells, since they are not divided. In this environment your menstruation probably stops due to the deficiency of healthy red blood cells.

My conclusion is that a very high dose of B12 probably leads to a sudden rush of blood cells, and this may start the menstruation, even after it has stopped for a very long time. Don't forget to supplement iron, and folic acid together with B12 - since the production of blood cells depends on them. For that reason a high dose of B12 may lead to an iron and folic acid deficiency, if not supplemented, they are all used up to build the new blood cells.

What does it mean when a girl is on her period and she stops bleeding for one day?

It really doesn't mean much. A period can last one day, but it can also stop and start. When that happens it usually happens because she had sex, is getting sick, or is under stress.

When is a girl's safe period?

There aren´t really any safe periods. Even if you are not ovulating you can start when having a strong orgasm. To find out when you ovulate you need the doctor to help you. They need to monitor you and take tests for a month or two.

Does coke make your period shorter?

If you mean coca-cola - no.
If you mean cocaine - most likely. That stuff messes up your whole system and the menstruation is very sensitive to changes in the diet etc.

When is day one of your cycle?

Day one of the menstrual cycle is THE DAY YOU START BLEEDING, THE DAY YOU START GETTING YOUR MENSTRUAL FLOW. This is the day you start counting your cycle, until you get the first day of the next period, this is, that is the fist day of that new cycle. DO NOT start counting from the last day of your period, that is a common mistake. It is important when you visit a physician to know when was your last menstrual period, so try and keep record of it in some form of agenda or excel page. When a doctor asks, "when was your last menstrual period?" he or she will count on you to remember this date, it is important health information and you should be responsible to remember it. He or she are expecting to hear the date of the FIRST DAY of your last, and therefore, most recent menstrual period. I'm a general physician, so, I'm telling you, for us, this is important.
