Detailed explanation-1: -Menstruation. Menstruation is one part of a person’s menstrual cycle which includes the shedding of the endometrium (lining of the uterus) that occurs throughout a person’s reproductive life.
Detailed explanation-2: -(MEN-stroo-WAY-shun) Periodic discharge of blood and tissue from the uterus. From puberty until menopause, menstruation occurs about every 28 days when a woman is not pregnant.
Detailed explanation-3: -A period releases the tissue that grew to support a possible pregnancy. It happens after each menstrual cycle in which a pregnancy doesn’t occur-when an egg hasn’t been fertilized and/or attached itself to the uterine wall. The uterus then sheds the lining which had grown to receive a fertilized egg.
Detailed explanation-4: -Menstruation is the breakdown of the uterus’ endometrial lining and blood vessels, resulting in a liquid that is expelled through the vaginal canal. The menstrual flow lasts for three to five days. Menstruation occurs every 28/29 days in human females. If the released ovum is not fertilized, menstruation begins.
