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.

My period is a few days late I don't think I am pregnant I'm scared what else makes it late?

Stress can make it late, worrying about it can make it late.

Some girls never get their periods when they expect to. I sometimes don't get mine for months. Imagine how freaky that can be!

A few days late isn't a big deal, try not to worry about it. If it's a few weeks late, go take a home pregnancy test or go to the doctor and ask for a pregnancy test.

Been on your period fo sixteen days should you be worried?

In my opinion i believe you should see a doctor because,your period should only last 5-7 days in length.But then again all girls are different but that's just not normal.

What happens when you douch while on your menstrual cycle?

Your menstrual cycle is your reproductive cycle, if you're a healthy fertile female then you're always on your menstrual cycle - I think maybe you mean during menstruation. At any point in your menstrual cycle douching is unhealthy and unhygienic: it changes vaginal pH, pushes harmful bacteria further into the vagina, and strips the vaginal tissues of lubrication.

Brown staining and period late?

The brown staining is your period this time around...

What are some tips on using a tampon for the first time?

Hey! i used a tampon for the first time to...

ive heard that you should use an applicator tampon- playtex are the best, BUT, if you live in Australia like me, they don't sell playtex. the only brand that has an applicator in Australia is tampax. Tampax is meant to be really bad brand cos firstly, the applicator is cardboard instead of plastic (makes it harder when applicating), secondly when they expand it can get REALLY uncomfortable and thirdly it LEAKS!!

So the best brand for Australia is probably stayfree. they have special ones for first timers (so they are small) and they glide super easy! they are called stayfree slims.

when you use it, just follow the instructions. the very very first time i tried i was trying to relax but i was tensing my muscles probs cos of the nerves and i just could NOT get it in!! so therefore, stay relaxed so your vaginal muscles open up and leave a lager space =] this was it will be able to slide in.

if it hurts or you can feel it, then pull it out and start again.

insert it an angle towards your spine.

also, try to push it in quite far so then you wont feel it =]

my very very first time, my mum was there 'helping' me, but i found it really annoying cos i couldn't concentrate. so make sure you are alone so you can focus easier and stay more calm and not tense =]

So, good luck =]

remember don't be nervous =]

hope this helped! =]

I was on the pill had to stop i switched to nuvaring this is my 1st week of having it out placebo pills usually got period on Thursday its Friday still nothin no sex since before last period?

If you have not had sex you know you are not pregnant, it is possible the hormones in NuvaRing are enough to prevent the withdrawal bleeding you had while on BCP. One possible side effect of the NuvaRing is for bleeding to stop completely.

You should replace the device on the day it is due, if you have withdrawal bleeding or not. (more information at link)

Why does a tampon have a string?

Some tampons have strings in order to make it easier to remove the tampon. Not all tampons have strings, to remove you would insert clean fingers into the vagina to grab the tampon and pull out.

How will the flow be from the second menstrual cycle?

It's impossible to say what menstrual flow will be like during your second period. Everyone is different, it may be lighter or heavier, there's simply no way to tell I'm afraid.

Why are you cramping after using a tampon on a light day?

There are a few reasons why tampons may increase menstrual cramps;
  1. Tampons can expand into your cervix.
  2. By absorbing fluids tampons 'tug' on vaginal walls.
  3. Tampons can cause vaginal ulceration.
  4. Tampons can contain chemicals that cause bad reaction.
In this case the tampon had more of a drying effect on the vaginal tissues causing more 'tugging' as it was drying out your vagina, it may have also caused ulceration. You need to be more careful, tampons shouldn't be worn with light flow.


Can shooting crystalmeth mess up your menstrual cycle?

That is just a dumb question. Of course it can. If it can alter your complete state of being and keep you up for days why wouldn't it effect the rest of your body.I think this question was a joke.

Why would you be getting cystitis every time you are ovulating?

There are two types of cystitis - bacterial cystitis and interstitial cystitis. Bacterial cystitis is caused by an infection in the bladder and is usually a one off occurence. The cause of interstitial cystitis is unknown but it is recognised that it often gets worse during ovulation, although the reason for this is not fully understood. It is possible that this could be what you have although there are a lot of different conditions which have similar symptoms and your doctor would be the best person to advise you.

If you have light spotting between your periods and you are 51 is this just a sign of aging?

==anwer== Your hormones are probably changing and your body could be beginning menopause which can make your periods very irregular until they stop all together.

How long can you go without your period if it is irregular but you haven't had one in three months?

Some women go several months without a period with no adverse effects, you are not "storing up" your menses as some women fear. It is fairly common in the years after puberty for this to happen, for some it takes a while for your periods to become regular. Many women with irregular periods do not ovulate regularlly and so may have difficulty getting pregnant, an ovulation predictor kit can be helpful in this situation. Birth control pills will usually regulate your menses, but it is a false sense of normalcy, since when they stop the pill, most will go back to the same symptoms they had prior to starting the pill. There are rare situations in which women have a breast discharge and no periods due to a brain tumor, a simple blood test can rule out this disorder.
