Question

Around 40ml blood is discarded in a menstrual cycle ?

Answer 1

A menstruation cycle is the normal regular cycle of menstruation or periods occurring every month in a woman, signifying that all the important parts of the body are functioning properly.

The menstruation cycle prepares the body for pregnancy every month and also helps cause hormonal changes in the body to keep a woman healthy.

Hormones are chemicals generated by glands in the body that controls most of the major bodily functions, from simple basic needs like hunger to complex systems like reproduction, and even the emotions and mood. In a woman, among other hormones, estrogen and progesterone are the key hormones produced by the ovaries.

The average menstrual cycle among women is usually 28 days. The first day of the menstrual cycle is when blood starts to flow out from the vagina. The complete duration of a menstrual/period cycle can be divided into four main phases:

Menstrual phase (From day 1 to 5)
Follicular phase (From day 1 to 13)
Ovulation phase (Day 14)
Luteal phase (From day 15 to 28)
