Detailed explanation-2: -Menstruation is one part of a woman’s cycle when the lining of the uterus (endometrium) is shed. This occurs throughout a woman’s reproductive life. With each monthly cycle, the endometrium prepares itself to nourish a fetus. Increased levels of estrogen and progesterone help thicken its walls.

Detailed explanation-4: -Menstruation is a woman’s monthly bleeding, often called your “period.” When you menstruate, your body discards the monthly buildup of the lining of your uterus (womb). Menstrual blood and tissue flow from your uterus through the small opening in your cervix and pass out of your body through your vagina.
