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 long does it take for a miscarriage to occur if you started spotting brown a week ago and it just started again and you were told your cervix is closed both times in the ER by a doctor?

Spotting(finding spots of blood on your underpants or toilet tissue after urinating) or bleeding is sometimes the first sign of miscarriage. Keep in mind, though, that spotting is common early in pregnancy and may or may not be a sign of a problem with the baby. About half of the time, it's a symptom of a miscarriage, an ectopic pregnancy, or a molar pregnancy. If you have any spotting or bleeding, call your doctor or midwife right away so she can determine whether your spotting indicates a potential problem. (If your blood is Rh-negative, you'll need a shot of Rh immunoglobulin within two or three days after you first notice bleeding.) You may also have abdominal pain, which can feel crampy or persistent as well as mild or sharp. Or you may just feel low back pain or pelvic pressure. The cervix is the narrow, tubular, lower end of the uterus that extends into the vagina. (The word cervix means "neck" in Latin.) When you're not pregnant, the cervical canal remains open a tiny bit to allow sperm to enter the uterus and menstrual blood to flow out. Once you become pregnant, secretions fill the canal and form a protective barrier called the mucous plug. During a normal pregnancy, the cervix remains firm, long, and closed until late in the third trimester. At that point it usually starts to soften, efface (grow shorter), and dilate (open up) as your body prepares for labor.

What does it mean when you have unusually bright red menstrual blood with big clots in it and it came 4 days late?

Probably nothing, but could be a sign of infection. If the blood clots have a white center, you may have miscarried. If you miscarried though it would be very painful and you'd fill more then 2 super maxi pads in 2 hours. My period has blood clots all the time and I am healthy- my gyn said that's normal.

What could be wrong if my breasts have never been swollen before a period but now day 25 they're swollen and they hurt really bad especially the nipples?

If you're using the combination pill then you don't get a period, instead you experience a withdrawal bleed as a result of a drop in synthetic hormones when going from your active to inactive pills.

If a tampon is removed and it smells bad what does that mean?

Vaginal scent is a result of bacteria within the vagina - the vagina is naturally acidic to maintain a healthy balance of 'good' and 'bad' bacteria, during menstruation the blood effects vaginal pH so causes imbalance in the 'good' and 'bad' bacteria, also blood is nutritious to bacteria.

Tampons can cause bad odour because they give bacteria the perfect environment to multiply upon and by keeping blood in contact with the vagina they have a larger effect on vaginal pH. Thus also why tampons are linked to TSS and commonly increase vaginal infections.

What is the ordor you get from a tampon?

Bacteria interacting with blood and oxygen.

There are various types of bacteria naturally occurring within your vagina which are kept under control by a slightly acidic pH that helps kill 'bad' bacteria while helping 'good' bacteria to thrive, and discharge flushes out excess bacteria.

During menstruation the blood changes the pH, also menstrual blood is nutritious so bacteria can thrive within menstrual flow and react to blood differently to discharge. Tampons increase odour because they give bacteria the perfect place to multiply, they keep flow in contact with the vagina which effects pH, some tampons contain chemicals that can effect bacterial growth, and tampons prevent your vagina from cleaning itself.

Why period id delaying for 7 months?

You could be pregnant but I doubt that because you would notice SOMETHING by now. My best guess on this one would be PCOS. I have a friend that has this medical condition. She had normal cycles when she first started her period then they came on less and less. Now she is lucky if she gets a period more than once a year. Funny thing about that.. she didn't think she could get pregnant because the doctor told her so. Well, she found out she was pregnant finally when she was a little over 12 weeks along. She didn't know because she is a bigger girl. If you do get diagnosed with this and do not want to conceive right away, use protection. A doctore can never give you a 100 percent diagnoses of infertility.. there is always that very small chance that somehow it can happen.

What can happen if you take citalopram with amphetamine?

Citalopram ingested prior to any of the amphetamine salts with the exception of Ritalin (Methylphenidate) will potentiate the effects of amphetamine. The mechanism of action takes place in the liver. Amphetamine is inactivated by the CYP2D6 Enzyme, where as Citalopram is a strong CYP2D6 Inhibitor(Blocks the action of). Therefore Citalopram blocks the body's ability to remove amphetamine from the blood stream, leading to higher blood concentrations.
