Menstruation

You can track your menstrual cycle and predict when your next period will come by counting the number of days from the first day of one period to the first day of the next. There are also period tracking apps available that can help you estimate when your next period is due based on your past cycles.

Menstruation is the monthly discharge of the endometrial lining of the uterus, which occurs in women of reproductive age as part of the menstrual cycle. The shedding of this tissue is accompanied by blood, and typically lasts between 3 to 7 days.

The hormones responsible for stopping your period are primarily estrogen and progesterone. These hormones are produced by the ovaries and are involved in regulating the menstrual cycle. Hormonal contraceptive methods like birth control pills or hormonal intrauterine devices (IUDs) work by altering the levels of estrogen and progesterone in the body to prevent ovulation and thereby stop the menstrual cycle.

normal range (95% of people) is 4,500 - 10,000 WBC / μL (μL = microliter)
6,000 WBC / μL is a good mean


a range of 11,000 to 17,000 / μL may be considered mild to moderate leukocytosis


a range of 3,000 to 5,000 / μL may be considered mild leukopenia


<1,500 / μL is considered leukopenia


< 200 / μL is considered agranulocytosis


1 μl = one-millionth (10−6) part of a liter, or one-thousandth (10−3) of a milliliter; abbreviated μl or μL

It is not unusual for a period to last for just a few days and to have a cycle that is more than 28 days per month. It is also not unusual to see dark brown blood during a period. As the menstrual cycle ends, the blood tends to be darker because it is old and being expelled more slowly. Many women have a menstrual cycle that is 35 days in length rather than 28.

It is possible for a female to go through their menstrual cycle twice in one month. There are many factors that can contribute to this. Hormones and stress levels are large factors in relation to the menstrual cycle.

Once the follicle erupts and the egg escapes, it enters the fallopian tube. Cilia on the lining of the fallopian tubes push the egg along on it's way to the uterus. If the egg is fertilized while on its way to the uterus, it implants in the endometrium when it reaches the uterus. If it is not fertilized, it is shed in the monthly menstruation cycle.

A shorter period could be caused by factors like stress, hormonal imbalances, or changes in weight or exercise. If this is unusual for you, it's a good idea to check in with a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues.

Yes, it is common to experience light bleeding or spotting after sexual intercourse, especially if it was rough or if there was not enough lubrication. This can be due to minor tears in the vaginal tissue or friction during sex. If the bleeding is heavy or persists, it's important to consult a healthcare provider.

On average, a woman loses about 1-2 ounces (30-60 milliliters) of blood during her period. However, it can vary from person to person and cycle to cycle. If you are experiencing heavy bleeding (more than 80 milliliters per cycle), it may be a sign of a medical issue and you should consult a healthcare provider.

usually 14 days before and 14 days after your period. There is usually a 48 hour window to have an egg fertilized.

During the menses, hormonal support to the uterine lining is lost and the body begins to reabsorb tissue that built up during the follicular and luteal phases of the cycle (during which preporatory actions are taken by the body for fertilization of the egg). But there is too much tissue to be reabsorbed and therefore must be flushed from the body through the menstrual flow, which consists of this tissue and blood.

This could be happening because of your hormonal levels, especially your estrogen level. Before I went on a birth control pill, I had this problem also. My doctor said it is due to estrogen levels being too low. Having a low estrogen level can cause you to start your period too early. Therefore, she gave me a pill with more estrogen in it and I have not had this issue since. If you are not currently on a birth control pill, you could have your doctor run a hormone level test and go from there.

no and they shouldn't act like that have a menstrual ever it is not a game joke or

pretend.

Well, obviously, you will get menstrual blood on your finger/hand and under the fingernail. This bothers some women; others are not bothered by it. Orgasm will push out more menstrual blood. Otherwise, masturbation when on a period is the same as when not menstruating, except it is messier.

No. The period is known as the menstrual cycle, which can only happen in women.

Strangely....Yes.

Male "periods" occur when men get a recurring bleeding in the prostate, which drains from the anus. The term for these symptoms has been know as "Red-Sticks" (also known as RS), on account of the blood usually draining during a bowel movement.

Now while this does not occur as often as the female menstruation, some men can go through RS as many times as once a month (avg. men have RS symptoms every 3-4 months).

Like females, males can experience Pre-Red-Sticks symptoms (PRS), which is usually categorized by mood swings and irritability as well as mild depression and emotional withdrawal. However Red-Stick symptoms on average last 4-5 days.

Unlike females, men do not need to use tampons or pads, as the sphincter muscles keep the blood from leaking (although a small percentage of men experience leakage, but that is usually due to a rare muscle disorder).

Actually it isn't "Physically Impossible" men have periods but we have no blood. Men just get in bad moods so like a girls just without the blood.

No

Yes but not for the same reason as a woman.

No. The egg is the reason you have your period in the first place. If there isn't any eggs to come down into the uteris, then there is no lining of the placenta, therefore there isn't any blood (period).

A female's menstrual period starts between the ages of 8-17. Shortly after puberty, a female will begin to have PMS (pre menstrual syndrome) which is totally normal. Breasts growing, cramps, moodiness, ect. A clear to milky white discharge found in the panties, to help discharge, wear liners. One a month, for about 5 days a girl will bleed out of the vagina. Not normal blood, sometimes brownish, not just red. Wear sanitary pads and tampons during this. The rest of the month is normal, until several weeks pass and her period will start again.

Sexual activity does seem to affect the menstrual cycle, probably due to hormones released during lovemaking. It may also be due to underlying factors - unconscious or conscious anxiety about pregnancy, change in status, trust issues, and the impact of sex and the changes it causes in our intimate relationships.

It is when a female has a period coming from the vagina.

During your period, you shed the thickened uterine lining and extra blood through the vagina. Your period may not be the same every month. It may also be different than other women's periods. Periods can be light, moderate, or heavy in terms of how much blood comes out of the vagina. This is called menstrual flow. The length of the period also varies. Most periods last from 3 to 5 days. But, anywhere from 2 to 7 days is normal.


Its a cycle for a woman that which means your body part is working normal. Menstrual blood flows from the uterus through the small opening in the cervix and passes out of the body through the vagina.
A woman releases an egg from her ovaries once a month. If this is not fertilised it is expelled from the body, together with the supporting tissue. This happens every month from puberty to menopause, and only ceases in pregnancy (in a healthy female). Monthly discharge of blood from the vagina of female reproductive organ is called menstruation.

It is possible to have two periods in a month, although it is not typical. A menstrual cycle can vary in length, causing some individuals to have two periods within a month. If this occurs frequently or is accompanied by other symptoms, it's best to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying health issues.

Yes, some women have shorter periods that last only two days. This can be normal as long as there are no concerning symptoms like severe pain or heavy bleeding. If you have concerns, it's always a good idea to consult with a healthcare provider.
