Menstruation – Everything Over the Rule
March 2nd 2009 -
What is the rule?
The rule, also Menstruation or period mentioned, is a bleeding, which withdraws from the sheath. The blood originates from the uterus and indicates the repulsion of the bearing mother mucous membrane. Normally this bleeding continues between three and seven days. It is a completely normal procedure and an indication of your health and the ripe one of your body.
If young girls achieve their sex-ripe phase, the body begins to form sex hormones. Hormones are chemical messengers, which are formed in the body. They have the function together with other systems to regulate and control the entire organism. The female follicle hormones (Estrogen) cause a ovulation and determine when the rule enters.
A discussion with your mother would be a good idea. It can tell you, how it was with their and probably gives you a few good pieces of advice. If you may not talk with your mother, perhaps you can contact an older sister, aunt, a cousin or a friend.
When does the first rule enter?
Nowadays a young girl gets his first rule at the age between ten and 16 years. The average age is at approximately 12.5 years. The first rule bleeding marks the last part of puberty, which began with the growing of the chest and the shame hair.
Should itself with you up to 16. Year of life still no rule bleeding stopped, then that has usually no serious reasons. Nevertheless you should visit your family doctor or better still another gynecologist in such a case.
The bleeding accompany the ripe woman of the first rule (Menarche) up to the change years (Menopause) at the age between 45 and 55 years. During a pregnancy the rule suspends.
How often does the rule enter?
The rule bleeding enters once the month for three to seven days. Between the individual bleeding a break lies from usually 24 days. That is however different with each woman. The days of the rule bleeding and the following break up to the next bleeding are called (Menstruation) cycle.
A normal cycle lasts between 21 and 35 days. The straight first cycles are frequently still very irregular. That is normal. After some months however regularity adjusts itself. If you note the days of your rule in a calendar, you recognize soon your personal cycle and can out easily figure, when the next rule will enter.
What happens in the body?
With beginning of puberty the internal sex organs of the girl mature: the Uterus, two ovaries and two Oviduct.
The ovaries fulfill two tasks:
* The education of the female sex hormones Estrogen and Progestin
* Ripening of egg cells
In each menstruation cycle an egg cell matures near. It continues to increase thereby. During this maturing first estrogen are produced. These provide for the structure of the bearing mother mucous membrane. After approximately two weeks (the center of the menstruation cycle) it comes to the ovulation. The matured egg cell is delivered of the ovary into a oviduct. This has the task to carry the egg into the uterus.
The ovary begins now to produce above all Progestin. This hormone causes first a further thickening of the bearing mother mucous membrane. If the egg walking by the Oviduct is fertilized by male seeds, the fertilized egg nests itself into the bearing mother mucous membrane in the beginning of a pregnancy.
If it does not come to fertilization, the ovary stops production of Progestin. By the reduction of the Progestins the bearing mother mucous membrane begins to become thinner and become detached. Exactly at this time you get your rule bleeding. Afterwards the descriptive procedures begin again from the front.
Preparations
Is preparatory for the first rule: You should have monthly binding at home and also always one in your shoulder ashes. If the first bleeding enters then, you do not need to make do with cotton wool or paper handkerchiefs. Cotton wool or paper is not very absorbent, in addition they are to be carried at the body usually very uncomfortably.
Bind however are ideal due to their absorbency and the stretcher comfort: They are fastened simply in the pants. Nowadays binding is separately in multicolored foil packed. This facilitates it to always have or two a binding with itself.
If the first rule should begin during the school time, you know also your teacher or a friend around one binds asks. There is mostly reserve binding or Tampons also in the first aid box of the school secretariat.
Tampons are inserted contrary to binding into the sheath and absorb there the blood. At its end is a thread to simply removing from the sheath. They must be changed several times on the day.
How binding are disposed of?
The used binds should you either in Toilet Paper or into the plastic foil of the new clean binds packs up and into a toilet bucket to throw. If no toilet bucket should be present, you can the packed up bind into your bag to put and her later dispose of. Throw never one bind into the toilet! Those binds water would absorb, swells and thus the discharge to clog!
