ONLY ONE EGG GETS RELEASED AT A TIME. Not always. Fraternal twins are the result of two separate fertilized eggs. Occasionally more than one egg can be released. If the other egg or eggs is not fertilized, it will be flushed from the body just like a single released egg that is not fertilized does each month.

Why do girls poop a lot before a period?

An increase of gas and bowel movements during your menstrual cycle is not uncommon in women. Most of the time there is nothing to worry about, but if you notice symptoms of constipation, diarrhea, and stomach cramps while not on your menstrual cycle, and these symptoms are exacerbated during your menstrual cycle it could be IBS (irritable bowel syndrome). You should see your doctor if that is the case.

Prostaglandins is what causes your uterus to contract and in doing so pushes the nutrient rich lining from your body when pregnancy has not occurred. Unfortunately, this can cause an increase in gas, diarrhea, or loose stools.

How many days does the average period last?

Periods can last from 3 days to ten days. It depends on the woman's cycle. Some periods may even last for a month but those are not healthy and should been seen by a OBGYN.
It depends on what how your body works. When I first started mines it lasted two weeks. Next month came and it last a month. 3rd period comes and it last two months(u was doing martial arts at the time)..then after that it was down to like a week half or lesser. But now mines last 5 days..and my friends are the same and some is up to a week.

The menses or periods last from day 1 to day 5 in the menstrual cycle.
Menstruation typically lasts 5-6 days, however every woman is different so shorter or longer can be considered perfectly normal. If you were to continue bleeding over 14 days it may be a good idea to see your doctor to make sure everything is okay.

How long before your period after discharge?

I am not sure what you mean by discharge.

When a woman speaks about discharge, she usually means cervical mucus that the vagina constantly produces. This mucus protects the vagina (and uterus) from germs and diseases. The discharge will change over the course of her menstrual cycle, changing colour and texture when she is fertile (around ovulation).

If you are young and haven't had your period, you should still be producing cervical mucus to keep your vagina moist and free of bacteria and germs that could cause infections. Just because you are producing mucus, it is not indicative that your periods are about to start.

When your period starts is due to genetic factors and diet. Ask you mum or sisters when they started their period as a indicator of when you period will start. It is also shown that starting your period is linked to your weight. Larger girls will start earlier than skinny girls as you need to have reached a certain amount of body fat before your body thinks it is able to support a pregnancy.

The shedding of the lining in the woman's uterus once a month is called what?

When the uterine lining sheds this is typically called menstruation. Although women on hormonal birth control will experience a faux period in the form of a withdrawal bleed.

What does it mean if you are not on your period but you see brown spotting?

Your body is getting rid of older blood that your body did not get rid of last cycle, or that took longer than normal to get through the cervical canal.

It can be indicative of many things:

Latent low-lying bacterial infection in the reproductive tract (see fertilitysolution.com)

Low progesterone

Endometriosis

PCOS

Pregnancy

'Normal' (all things are relative, so be wary of this suggestion.)

How old do you have to be to use a tampon?

There is no age limit - although tampons are not the best option for younger women.

Younger women in their early teens or pre-teens are at higher risk of developing Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS), also very young women may not be responsible enough to use tampons correctly which will also increase the health risks associated with tampon use like vaginal infections and TSS.

It's best to start with pads, if a person wants to move on to internal menstrual products then a better option would be menstrual cups which are not only safer than tampons but far more convenient too.

Is it normal to miss your period after the first time you get it?

Depo Provera is a type of hormonal birth control that is administered by injection. Yes, it is normal to miss your period after getting Depo for the first time. Some women find that their periods lighten or stop completely after taking Depo Provera.

What does it mean if you have 2 periods in 1 month?

It simply means that you have a hormonal imbalance.

There are multiple reasons for this, the most likely is just hormonal imbalance if you're in your teens or going into menopause. Only a doctor can confirm the cause of this problem, if you do go over two weeks and are still bleeding it's best to see your doctor to stop bleeding and investigate the cause.

Important note: hormonal birth control does not regulate periods.
This is a myth based on ignorance of the menstrual cycle and how hormonal birth control works, the pill works by suppressing your menstrual cycle in order to prevent ovulation and thus also prevents menstruation - the bleeding women get on the pill is a withdrawal bleed controlled by the placebo pills in the pack, it mimics menstruation but a regular withdrawal bleed isn't the same as regular menstruation. Some doctors will prescribe hormonal birth control for this reason to save them working to investigate the cause of irregular cycles, this is unethical but unfortunately very common.

Do you get your period twenty eight days from when you start or finish?

Not everyone starts every 28 days. If you think you are pregnant, take a home test or go see a doctor. The doctor may give you a blood test, they can detect pregnancy earlier than a urine test. If you get a negative result with the home test, wait 5-7 days, if you haven't gotten your period take another one. If after two weeks you still havne't gotten your period and the home tests are all negative, you should call a doctor, you may need medications to get it started again. That happens in some women occasionally. Your cycle will start on the first day of actual bleeding, not spotting. And not all women have 28 day cycles, nor ovulate on cycle day 14.

Can you ovulate when no menstruation period is present?

What happenens if you don't have your period?

If you never get your period you will cramp for the rest of your life and your body wont function right.you will die...

So, OMG to the person above. Stop scaring little kids. O_O -creeper-

Here's the logical answer:

If you never get your period, your best bet is to visit the doctor. They'll probably induce your period, which isn't painful, it's just a drug. (:

But eventually, all girls get their period. One way or another. It's just natural. (:

Plus, if you're under the age of 16, you're still young and growing. Enjoy life before it becomes the monthly hell. (: Well, okay, it's not hell, but you're in for a ride, just by being a girl.

But don't be blaming your parents.
