Menstrual Cycles and related queries

Menstrual Cycles

The menstrual cycle is a natural process that helps in preparing the woman's body for pregnancy. This has four phases: The menstrual phase [day 1 to day 5], follicular phase [day 1 to day 13], ovulation phase [day 14], and luteal phase [day 15 to day 28]. The duration of the menstrual cycle varies from woman to woman. If the egg released by ovaries during ovulation is not fertilized, the uterus lining sheds through the vagina. And this is called the menstrual period.

Why does a menstrual period happen only once per month?

The menstrual cycle is the monthly series of changes a woman's body goes through in preparation for the possibility of pregnancy. Each month, one of the ovaries releases an egg - a process called ovulation. At the same time, hormonal changes prepare the uterus for pregnancy. If ovulation takes place and the egg isn't fertilized, the lining of the uterus sheds through the vagina. This is a menstrual period.

Is it possible to have your period 3 times a month?

Stress, usage of birth control pills, PCOS , are few reasons for menstrual disturbances. Imbalances in the hormonal secretion may result in period disorders as well. The primary hormones contributing to having a period three times a month include female sex hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, Luteinizing Hormone (LH), and Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH). Other than these, higher testosterone levels can also result in period 3 times in one month. Furthermore, anomalies in Thyroid levels may result in irregular periods as well.
