Today, you will learn how to pass your period,how much they should last and about the quality of the blood. The arrival of the month for a girl can be a real shock if you do not discuss this topic with her in advance. This completely natural process should not cause disgust or discomfort for the girl. It is necessary to tell the future woman in advance, overcoming all the inconveniences and discomforts during the conversation, about how the first periods begin the first time, how to carry out the care procedures and much more.
Puberty
In girls, this period is calledpuberty. The first periods in girls begin in the middle of this cycle. What happens to the girl in this segment of life? There is a process of transformation from a girl into a mature woman who is able to continue her race. Monthly girls and say that the reproductive function is running, now there is the likelihood of pregnancy during unprotected intercourse.
How does this process start:
- the brain sends a signal to the ovaries at the right time;
- the latter respond to it with the production of hormones;
- hormones start the process of forming the body of a girl.
It is important to note that there are both visible changes and no. At the time of puberty, the following changes occur:
- the girl begins to grow;
- brain increases;
- there is an expansion of the hip bones;
- mammary glands are formed;
- reproductive organs are growing and actively developing;
- there are changes in the nervous system and more.
The first day of the month comes in aboutone year after the start of puberty girls. The first menstruation is called "menarche". This suggests that the ovaries began to function, and now they are capable of producing hormones. Right now there are ovulations and a high probability of pregnancy.
Первая менструация в норме должна начаться в period from twelve to fifteen years. There are cases when they begin much earlier or later. It is important to know that there are many factors that influence the onset of the first menstrual periods:
- genetic information;
- degree of physical development;
- nervous system;
- there is the influence of lifestyle;
- social environment;
- knowledge of sexual development and gender relations;
- health status.
Early menstruation occurs in the period from eightup to ten years, and later on age of 15 years and more. The last option is quite common in children who have been sick a lot and have taken medications for a long period of time. Quite often, hormonal disruptions and abnormal development of the reproductive organs are considered to be the cause of abnormalities.
Cycle time
Девочке просто необходимо сообщить, как проходят menstruation, how long they last, possible problems and how to care for yourself during this period. It is very important to acquaint her with the concept of the duration of the menstrual cycle and to teach how to use the calendar in order not to get into the ridiculous situation with the “flow”.
And so, how should the menstruation take place?It is important to know that this question is purely individual, because each organism is special. If there are no health problems, then the cycle should be stable. However, it takes a little time to stabilize the menstrual cycle.
What is the menstrual cycle? It is a kind of re-tuning of the body. In this process are involved:
- vagina;
- uterus;
- the ovaries.
It is important for a girl to know that menstruation isa natural process that occurs when hormone is produced by the ovaries. This bleeding from the genital tract should not scare or cause discomfort. The cycle is the time interval between the first day of one menstruation and the first day of another. Although the ideal cycle is the lunar (28 days), the norm is from 10 to 45 days. If you notice a deviation from these norms, or the cycle has not been established for a long time, then a gynecologist's consultation is necessary, because the problem may be in violation of ovarian function.
Control (calendar method)
We figured out what the monthly mean.Once again, this is a monthly bleeding from the vagina of every woman. When the girl started her period, she should be taught to celebrate these days on the calendar. Why do you need it? Of course, the calendar tracking method helps determine the duration of the cycle and the duration of menstrual flow.
Кроме этого, календарный метод – это средство contraception. Thanks to the calendar you can avoid unwanted pregnancy, as it is possible to calculate the approximate day of ovulation. It is worth noting that this method should be combined with others, because there is a small chance of unwanted pregnancy, even in days unfavorable for conception.
Personal hygiene
While menstruation takes place, you need to more carefully follow the rules of personal hygiene. This will help avoid unpleasant sensations, both for the girl and for those around him.
Everyone knows that the excreted blood has a specific smell. You can get rid of it very simply by following some rules.
What are the selections duringmonthly? This is more the top layer of the endometrium. The endometrium lines the walls of the uterus from the inside. It is important to know that over time this layer needs to be changed. As a result, menstruation occurs. During the “clean-up” of the uterus, its cervix dilates so that unwanted parts can come out without any obstacles. The dilated cervix is an ideal condition for bacteria to enter the uterus. They may be contained on a pad or tampon, which have not changed for a long time.
To eliminate unpleasant odors and prevent bacteria from entering, you should heed some hygiene rules:
- change the pad or tampon every three hours;
- take a shower if possible before changing the protective equipment;
- if the last point cannot be implemented, then it will be enough to wash or wipe with a damp cloth;
- when washing, first of all you need to clean the perineum and only then the anus (this will be an obstacle for microbes from the rectum to enter the vagina);
- you can not take a bath and go to the bath.
The last item is mandatory, because inBath water is not sterile, therefore, bacteria and microbes can get into the vagina. In addition, hot water and high temperature contribute to the flow of blood to the pelvis and the expansion of the cervix, which facilitates the passage of bacteria into the uterus.
How long are the periods?
And so, how are the normal periods?To begin with, the menarche, that is, the first menstruation, does not last long, just a couple of days. There is practically no blood (only a couple of drops), as a rule, it is “daub”. The normal cycle will be established only after a year and a half.
Please note that the established cycle should not stray during the entire fertile period of a woman’s life. This is very important, if there are deviations, it is better to visit a gynecologist.
Сколько длятся месячные?10 days, 7 or 2 are all limits of the norm. For some, they pass quickly enough, but there are cases when periods last up to ten days. Do not worry about this, because each organism is individual. Below are some of the rules regarding monthly, if you do not have any deviations from them, then consider that you are completely healthy:
- The cycle must be between twenty and thirty-five days. The "lunar cycle" is common and, according to gynecologists, the most successful (28 days).
- On average, for women, the duration of menstruation is five days, but the norm is a period of two to ten days.
- The intensity of bleeding should be reduced to the last day of menstruation.
- Это достаточно трудно определить, но, тем не however, there is also a rate of blood lost. Be sure to pay attention to the intensity of discharge, for the entire cycle you should not lose more than 60 milliliters of blood. This amount is optimal, the woman does not feel any discomfort or indisposition, because the loss is quickly restored by the body.
Amount of blood
The amount of bleeding during menstruation depends on many factors:
- the presence of the intrauterine device as a means of contraception increases the blood volume and the duration of critical days;
- taking hormonal contraceptive drugs can reduce blood volume, and also reduce or increase the number of “red days”;
- hormones;
- existing diseases;
- heredity;
- body type;
- external factors (climate, social environment, and so on);
- food quality;
- condition of the nervous system;
- age;
- in women who have given birth, the amount of blood during menstruation increases significantly;
- the weight.
При этом цвет месячных тоже о многом может to tell. We will talk about this in the next section of the article. Please note that the volume of blood lost should not exceed 60 milliliters for the entire cycle. If you go beyond this framework, contact your gynecologist, perhaps he will prescribe a special preparation for bleeding during menstruation.
The quality of blood excreted during menstruation.
Цвет месячных может рассказать о каких-либо disorders and diseases occurring in the female body. Pay attention to the fact that the color, volume and nature of the discharge can change a woman many times in her life. Many factors affect this process.
What do the poor dark periods say?As a rule, it is only their forerunners. Brown discharge before menstruation is considered the norm, and you should not worry about it. Also, dark periods occur after abortions and miscarriages, long-term use of hormonal contraceptive drugs.
The first periods should be bright scarlet,their number should be minimal. Pay attention to the fact that if menstruation of this nature appeared after the establishment of the cycle (that is, this is not the first menstruation), then perhaps it is endometriosis, which, undoubtedly, should be treated with hormonal preparations.
Brown or black discharge three days beforemenstruation or earlier may also indicate the presence of endometriosis disease or ectopic pregnancy, which is a serious danger to the life of a woman. Conduct a pregnancy test and immediately go to the gynecologist.
Pain during menstruation
Some girls say that the first daymenstruation is very difficult, as it is accompanied by severe pain. No matter how sad it is, but such cases are the majority. Consult a gynecologist for help, and he will help you to remove these feelings with the help of drugs. Experiencing on this issue is completely meaningless, it is quite a normal state of the girl during menstruation. Many women claim that after giving birth, they were able to get rid of this symptom.
PMS
With the question, how are the monthly, we figured out.Now very briefly consider the concept of PMS. This is premenstrual syndrome, which all manifests itself in different ways. The most common symptoms are:
- irritability;
- aggression;
- headache;
- nausea;
- high temperature;
- chills;
- decreased attention and memory;
- breast swelling and more.
Menstruation sex
Intimate life is better to wait a little. Why:
- from an aesthetic point of view, it is disgusting;
- during menstruation, there is a high probability of “catching up” the disease, because the cervix is open;
- the likelihood of developing diseases is possible - endometriosis, algomenorrhea;
- many believe that during menstruationit is impossible to get pregnant, but this is not the case (not one, but two can mature eggs, early ovulation may come, and spermatozoa live in the woman's vagina for up to eleven days);
- blood is a very bad lubricant during intercourse, because the latter is much thicker than blood;
- this may alienate the partner.
Monthly during pregnancy
If you notice spotting duringbaby's expectations, it is worthwhile to immediately go to your doctor. This may indicate some pathologies of pregnancy or the possibility of miscarriage. However, there are cases when a girl has periods during pregnancy. In any case, the presence of bleeding during pregnancy is a deviation from the norm.
Monthly and climax
At this time, the woman is "reconfigured"organism, now it will serve only you. This is not so bad. In this period of time there may be severe disruptions to the menstrual cycle (menstruation comes twice a month, blood is replaced with scanty secretions, and so on). It's quite normal. Be sure to learn how to distinguish menopause from pregnancy, because the absence of menstruation occurs in both cases. Menopause has a number of symptoms: dry vagina, frequent headaches, prolonged depression, excessive night sweats and many others.
