What happens if you dont have you period for 1month and you 12?
It depends on whether or not you are currently sexually active. If you're not, the chances are that you've just missed it because of fluctuating hormonal levels or stress. It's especially common to be irregular in the first few years of having your period, because your body is still trying to figure itself out. If you are sexually active, however, you might want to look into taking a pregnancy test. It's unlikely that you are pregnant, but it might be useful jus so that you can rule it out as the cause. Again it's most likely fluctuating hormones, but it might be worth checking out anyway.

No, you don't have to change your tampon every time you go to the bathroom. You do need to change tampons every 4-6 hours to stay hygienic and reduce health risks like infections and TSS, also remember to alternate with pads too. When you do use the bathroom be sure that if you're using tampons with strings that you move the string out of the way so it doesn't get wet or dirty.

Why is the thickening of the uterus important to reproduction?
Because if the egg is fertilised, it implants into the thick uterus lining. If it wasn't thick, there would be nothing for it to implant into. Also, once the egg is fertilised and is implanted there, it provides protection around the egg
What may be the reason for your period came after 2 weeks?
It could be implantation bleeding, which happens when a fertilized egg embeds it's self in the lining of the uterus, thus resulting in pregnancy.

Having a period is normal.
However, to correct the answer above slightly, you can still have periods while pregnant. Periods while pregnant are called "spotting" and this occurs as the egg is embedding itself in the wall of the womb.

What is the fluid lost by blood?
Between day 1 and 21 of your cycle your uterus wall starts to thicken so that a fertilized egg can implant there and turn into a fetus (baby) when an egg doesn't fertilize the uterus wall just starts to break away and that is the blood that you get during your period. However if a egg is fertilized then the egg can implant and the wall will be how the mother and baby are connected and how the baby will gets its nutrients via the umbilical chord.

Are you fertile after menstruation period?
Most woman are not fertile during this period.
I think it is almost unheard of regarding being pregnant with one baby and managing to become pregnant with a second one a few months later. This is as rare as it can be, without totally ruling it out. (I think I have heard of one incident where a mother have given birth to "twins" of estimated two months age difference, but I can not find proper references to it)
It is however more common to become pregnant with one baby and then become pregnant with a second one within a week. Two eggs can be released at slightly different times and become fertilized correspondingly. Both can attach themselves and hence you will be pregnant with twins, although not identical twins.
Most women that breastfeed their baby are also infertile during this period.
This is a less safe period although the first 6-8 months are considered pretty safe if the baby actually feed from you and does not get additional lots of food.
The moment you start to wean the baby off, you will start becoming fertile and your menstruation will start again.
It is not a fail-proof method of "birth-control"
Why do tampons hurt to take out?
It would only hurt if you are removing them before time and so it is too dry; when a tampon is full of menstrual blood it glides out easily. Remember, though, not to leave it in for more than 8 hours. If you have this problem often, you should switch to a smaller size tampon.
You haven't had your period in 2 weeks are you pregnant?
If your really worried buy a pregnancy test when you reach 4 weeks after intercourse (so two weeks after you posted this), or go and talk to the people who work at your local sexual health clinic.
The more probable thing that has happened is that your body is understress. Stress can cause you to be several weeks late for a period or skip it all together. From personally experience during end of year 11 I skipped my period for 3 months straight because of the stress of exams and so on. Also a drastic change in your diet can cause your period to change. Girls have reported lossing their period all together because of bullemia and/or aneroxia. Woman only produce eggs when their body is ready for babies (this does not mean the woman is mentally ready which is the more important thing to take into account if an accidently pregnancy has happened or before planning a child) Generally a period follows because the egg hasn't been fertalised thus the body needs to clean itself. Earlier in life (during and just after puberty) and later on in life (just before menopause) women sometimes don't even drop an egg thus their period doesn't come.
But as I said earlier, go talk to your local sexual health clinic if your worried, they can help you.
