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.

Is it normal for a teen to miss her period for three months?

It is fairly normal, as teenagers periods are not always regular because their hormones have not fully regulated yet. However, if she has had sex, she should take a pregnancy test. If she hasn't had sex, it might be worth going to see a doctor to check everything is OK, which it probably is. It is probably caused by stress, anxiety, tiredness, travelling, illness or not eating properly.

Is it normal for a 10 year old to get her period?

Yes. Nowadays girls are getting their periods earlier. I am ten years old and just recently got my period last July. I have reserched this question very often and my conclusion is that it is normal for girls to get their period even at the age of as early as 8 years old. So, yes, it is normal for a 10 year old to get her period.

What causes menstrual cycle to be late?

1.Stress

Stress can affect many things in our lives, including our periods. Sometimes we're so stressed out that our body decreases the amount of a hormone (GnRH), which causes us to not ovulate or menstruate. Working with your doctor or midwife can help you figure out what you need to do to relax and get back on schedule. This can sometimes take a few months or more to work itself out.

2.Illness

A sudden, short illness or even a longer illness can cause your periods to be delayed. This is usually temporary. If you think this is the reason that your period is late, talk to your practitioner about when they expect your period to return.

3.Change in Schedules

Changing schedules can really throw off your body clock. This is particularly true if you go from days to nights at work or vice versa. If you frequently change shifts and notice a problems with regular cycles, then see if it is possible to be put on a more permanent shift or at least a shift that only varies after a lengthier time period.

4.Change in Medications

Perhaps you're trying a new medication and a delayed or absent period is the cause. Be sure to talk to your doctor or midwife about this side effect. It is very common with some methods of birth control. If you change medications, be sure to ask what effects this may have on your period. This is true, even if you don't think that there will be a big change.

5.Being Overweight

Carrying around too much weight can hormonally shift your cycles and even stop them. Most women will see a return to normal cycles and fertility with the loss of some weight, even if they are still considered overweight.

6.Being Underweight

If you do not have enough body fat you will not have regular periods, sometimes you can eve cause your periods to stop all together. This is called amenorrhea. Typically a weight gain will help you have your periods return. This is a frequent cause of a missed period in women who work out to an extreme or are professional athletes.

7.Miscalculation

The menstrual cycle varies from woman to woman. While we say that the average menstrual cycle is 28 days long, that is not true for everyone. Sometimes our period is believed to be late when in all actuality we have simply miscalculated. If you have irregular menstrual cycles, but know when you ovulate, look for your period about two weeks after you ovulate. That may help you keep an easier track of your periods.

8.Peri-Menopause

Peri-menopause is the period of time where you are transitioning from reproductive age to a non-reproductive age. Your periods may be lighter, heavier, more frequent or less frequent - but mostly just not normal. If you do not wish to get pregnant, be sure to continue to use birth control because you are likely to still be fertile at least some of the time.

9.Menopause

Menopause is when you have reached the point in your life where you will no longer ovulate or menstruate. Menopause can be a natural life event or may happen surgically through hysterectomy or through chemical such as various forms of chemotherapy.

10.Pregnancy

Finally! Yes, your missed period might be because you're pregnant! A simple pregnancy test can usually help you determine if you have missed your period because you are pregnant. The urine pregnancy tests and blood pregnancy tests look for the hormone hCG.

What to do next?

If you are pregnant, you should call to make a prenatal appointment with your midwife or doctor. It normally takes a bit to get you in so call right away.

If you have taken a pregnancy test and it is negative. Most tests advise you to wait another week and retest. If the second test is negative or if you have a good idea of why your period is missing, then you can and should call the doctor or midwife sooner for a physical exam. They may also do blood work and can sometimes prescribe medications to help bring on a tardy period, like Provera.

Once you are on your period can you take a birth control pill to stop it?

Taking a birth control pill will not stop you from getting your period. It might make your periods shorter and lighter. There is a pill out there that makes it so your body only gets four periods a year, but I wouldn't recommend it. Your body does things for a reason, and 12 periods a year is more natural.

How many days does it take to ovulate?

You only ovulate one day per cycle - although you may release multiple eggs over a 24 hour period, and with eggs surviving for up to 24 hours it means there may be a viable egg present for up to 48 hours. It takes your entire menstrual cycle to ovulate as it's a cycle, a domino effect of hormonal changes and functions occurring between aspects of your reproductive organs.

I hope I could be of help to you by answering your question to the best of my knowledge.

What does it mean if you dont have a period one month but you did the month before?

It could just be that your periods haven't become regular yet. If your period has been regular for a while, then you have to look at the possibility of pregnancy. If that is not the case, you may have just skipped a period because of stress, over-exercise, or a change in your diet. If it continues to be a problem for you, go see a doctor.

Can you jump use skiping rope during mensturation?

There is NOTHING you can't do that you normally do when having your period if you feel up to doing it.

(And I wouldn't recommend wearing white pants.)

Can ovarian cysts cause you not to have a period?

What is pressure behind the eye mean?

Eye pressure (intraocular pressure) is controlled by a watery fluid called aqueous humour, which fills the front part of the eye. This fluid is made in the ciliary body (a ring of tissue behind the coloured part of the eye, which is called the iris). It flows through the pupil and drains away through tiny drainage channels called the trabecular meshwork. This is situated in the drainage angle between the cornea (the clear window at the front of the eye) and the iris. In a normal eye there is a balance between the production and drainage of this fluid, but in some eyes there is an imbalance. Most cases of glaucoma occur because the flow of fluid out of the eye becomes restricted and the pressure in the eye rises.
