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.

What is the best female hormone pill for a transgirl to take and how much does it cost?
Girl-it's such a broad question. unfortunately there's no one answer. if you can afford it, go see an endocrinologist. be safe, its your body.
usually the first steps ( but not always) can be reducing the testosterone in your body.
( "sypro" is a common drug) the thought is that once you start taking female hormones,
a drastically reduced testosterone level will give you maximum results. the female hormones won't be fighting the male ones once they're gone/reduced.
sorry if this answer frustrates you. but it's method that the european's use as well as many U.S. dr's. you can always go black market, get hormones yourself and use at your own risk. i know many girls that do that. but i think it's not a good long term idea.
hormones will tax your liver if not properly monitored. the dosages need to be adjusted all the time. plus there can be unwanted side effects/ risks in certain hormones.
my advice, do it right, once!!
best to you all

Does prenatal vitamins cause you to miss your period?
No prenatal vitamins do not cause you to miss your period - they are vitamins, thus have no influence on your menstrual cycle. Consider that if prenatal vitamins did cause you to miss your period (which would only happen if you missed ovulation) then they would prevent pregnancy, this work against those who were taking them!
Can you practice using a tampon?
You practice using a tampon while using a tampon. You cannot use tampons when not menstruating, and you should not insert or remove tampons over and over within a short space of time - both will increase TSS risk.

Do cows produce blood during menstruation?
Cows DO NOT menstruate. This is solely a human reproductive physiology characteristic, not a bovine reproductive physiology characteristic. Cows have an Estrous cycling period, NOT Menstrual period. During the Metestrus period, a cow (both cows AND heifers) will show a bit of postestrual bleeding caused by the withdrawal of estrogen 2 to 3 days after the cow or heifer goes out of heat. A portion of the lining over the caruncles in the female bovine's uterus become engorged with blood and bleeding from the smaller capillaries may occur. If you didn't see the female in heat, this (the slight bloody discharge) is evidence that she was in heat a few days earlier.
By definition, menstruation is the sloughing of the endometrium in the uterus to the exterior. There is no defined period of sexual receptivity during menstruation, and the timeline for the description of the cycle begins and ends with menses, not ovulation nor estrus. The estrous cycle begins and ends with estrus and/or ovulation; the follicular phase is short and the luteal phase long. The Menstrual cycle begins and ends with the start of menses (sloughing of endometrium). Ovulation occurs in the middle of the cycle. The follicular and luteal phase are the same length.
Recent research by Dr. Franklin Hefenhorf of the Women's Period Health Association or WPHA, shows that a woman's menstrual cycle should complete after no more than eight days. If you find your period is longer than this, you have Goaskadoctor syndrome, or Youranidiot disease. For further help see your local psychiatrist.

Can low dose BC make you miss periods?

I have had my period for a whole month?
If you have had your menstrual cycle for a month there most likely is an underlying cause. Endometriosis, ovarian cysts, or hormonal imbalances can cause this issue. It is advised to consult ones doctor.
What can you do to bring a late period down?
Your period starts when your uterus is triggered to shed its lining because a particular hormone stops being secreted. Therefore, there is nothing you can do, unless you have a way to alter the balance of hormones in your body.
if this is the only bleed you have had since the miscarriage then it is just your body getting rid of whats left in the womb. bleeding after a miscarriage can and usually does last up to a month so dont worry until it goes on longer than that. The thick red mucus is just the thickened lining of the womb where it thickened to accomodate the baby. try not to worry. a midwife

When you miss a pill your period will arrive earlier. If you miss 1 pill your period will arrive 1 day earlier than usual. If you miss 2 pills your period will arrive 2 days earlier than usual, and so on. This will help you to record when your period is due. I have noticed you began bleeding 10 days after starting BC pills. This should not be happening and is not normal. Because of this, your period may be irregular. You need to see your doctor and tell him/her about the early bleeding and possibly have your birth control changed to a more suitable one for you. Please note this is advice only and should not be used in place of a medical experts.
Is toxic shock syndrome the same as sepsis?
toxic shock syndrome is in your vagina, it happens when new bacteria or yeast are introduced and then rapidly reproduce within the vagina. The vagina can't fight the bacteria (using acidity). sepsis is when your intestines rupture and leak into your body. obviously TSK is cooler.
