Overview

The term period in reference to menstruation dates from 1822 and means an interval of time or a repeated cycle of events. Another word for menstruation is catamenia, from the Greek katamenia (kata = by + menia = month). A catamenia cup is a firm, flexible cup worn inside the vagina to catch menstrual blood.Menstruation may have led to humanity's sense of time as most early lunar calendars were based on the length of a women's menstrual cycle.Some cultures believed that menstrual blood could cure ailments such as warts, birthmarks, gout, goiters, hemorrhoids, epilepsy, worms, leprosy, and headaches. Menstrual Blood was also used to create love charms and to ward off demons. Additionally, a virgin's first menstrual napkin was thought to be a cure for the plague.A girl's first menstrual period is called a menarche (from the Greek word men = month + arkhe = beginning). After the menarche, ovulation does not usually occur with menstruation for approximately the first year to 18 months.When a girl is born, her complete potential egg supply is born with her. In the womb, she creates about seven million egg cells. At birth, she has two million. By puberty, there are only about 400,00 are left, of which fewer than 500 are actually released.Menstruation is the process where an unfertilised egg, or a fertilised egg that has not become embedded in the uterus lining, is removed from the body via blood flow through the vagina.Humans are very rare among species in having the trait of menstruation, as most animals do not bleed on a regular basis to remove the uterus lining and unfertilised egg or underdeveloped embryo. Only humans, monkeys, apes and free-tailed and leaf-nosed bats, and elephant shrews menstruate. In most animals, the uterus lining is reabsorbed into the body if a female does not become pregnant after releasing an egg from the ovary.Women get menstruation every month, but we also don't know everything that we should know about our periods or what happens when we get it. The average woman starts menstruating at the age of 13 and stops at the age of 51 with an average menstruation of 3-7 days per month. This means that the average woman has 456 periods over the span of 38 years; that's roughly 2,280 days or 6.25 years of the average woman's life.Now, think about how much money you spend on your survival pack you require for each menstruation-all the pads, tampons, food, pain pills, heating pads, panties, and so on.
