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.

What was the common age to begin menstruation during the Victorian era?
Hello there. I am currently studying menstruation in the Victorian period (pun intended!) All the medical books I have looked at from the era say that the common age is around 13. So the same as today. You might also like to know that for some reason doctors were convinced that heat played a significant role in menstraution and that women in tropical climes started earlier - they estimated around the age of 9! So the answer is Victorian women started at roughly the same age as they do today! Hope that helps.

Yes, some guys do use tampons.
It's not just women who have a vagina and a uterus, some men have female genitals and reproductive anatomy too and as such some men will use tampons, pads, and cups. Most men have a penis and don't have a uterus so don't need tampons for their traditional purposes.
Tampons are sometimes used in first aid when dealing with problems like a nosebleed, tampons are the perfect shape to insert into the nostrils to absorb the blood from a nose bleed.
well when I went they told me that It was kinda common to miss a few periods. They draw blood and test for a thyroid problem. They may write you a prescription for provera and tell you to drink water, exercise and loose weight, dont stay stressed out, common things we all know to do. :) Hope this helps.
Do breasts grow during your period?
Well they dont grow exactly they just tempareraly expand but they tend to go back to normal after a couple of days
Especially if you are satisfied that you do not want to have any more children, It is the best way of getting rid of a problem that will probably end up getting worse over time resulting in an hysterectomy any way. At least that is the way my wife would describe the problem you are faced with.
Did you possibly leave a tampon up there last month? Feel around with a couple fingers and pull it out if you did. You may want to give your GYN a call if you can't find any thing on your own or go to the ER. Don't be embarrassed you are not the only person this has ever happened to.
I get my period regular everymonth and now 2 weeks later it is back but it is light?
It is different each time until it steadies into a regular pattern. Until then though, it may vary from how heavy or how often you have a period. Either way, you should come on atleast one time each month.
What does it mean if you are two days late for your period but on the pill?
well you need to go and check if you are pregnant or not, It is unusual that they pill late your period.
It could be ovulation, some women have spotting when they ovulate. Or it could be the bleeding of implantation of the fertilized egg which occurs 5-7 days after ovulation. If you stop having any bleeding and have nausea and/or breast tenderness, then you are probably pregnant. If the irregular bleeding persists, see your doctor.
How fertile are you the first 3 days after your period?
That varies according to different women and their cycle. Some women can begin to have signs of fertility as early as day nine in their cycle. Others won't be until much later. Even before ovulation you can have fertile mucus that will enable a sperm to survive longer than usual.
Can oxycodone cause menstruation to stop?
Yes it can. I have been told by my doctors that since I take oxycodone for pain that my periods may stop till I stop taking the medication.
What does it mean when you have clear discharge with small blood clots?
You're probably pregnant and you're experiencing implatantion discharge.
I know you might hate to be irregular, but even so birth control helps you to get regular, it is not healthy. Yes it is a possibility for you to get breast cancer or any other cancer in fact, but it is also bad for when you have kids, if you want kids i suggest you don't take them because it weakens the part where the baby is in your stomach and you may have complications. so please think about it!
How can you predict your menstrual cycle?
One menstrual cycle is the number of days from your first day of period up until your next period - you determine your average menstrual cycle length by figuring out the average of your last six cycles. You can also use mobile phone apps or web sites such as My Monthly Cycle to figure out your average menstrual cycle length for you.
If you have a cold does the pill stop working?
No it is only when you take antibiotics that the pill can be less effective and maybe if you vomit within an hour or two of taking it
You were late five days then got your period you are never late what can be happening?
You were five days later than you predicted - this prediction was based on your average menstrual cycle length, but menstrual cycles change and they will not be exactly the same throughout your entire life. Anything up to a weeks variation from your average menstrual cycle is normal, also things such as ill health or stress can delay your menstrual cycles too.
