Adolescence refers to that transitional phase between childhood and adulthood in a person’s life. This period is characterized by a plethora of physical, psychological and emotional changes.
A combination of physical changes such as height and weight gain, development of sexual organs and characteristics that ensure the maturation of a child into an adult is termed as puberty. It is during this period that adolescents reach sexual maturity and become capable of procreating.
At the onset of puberty, girls usually have their first vaginal bleeding, which over time becomes a regular occurrence. The onset of this regular cycle is termed as menarche. Girls start menstruating somewhere between the ages of 9 and 16 and continue to do so till their early 50’s.
Women have hundreds of eggs in their ovaries at any given time. Every month, in response to reproductive hormones – mainly estrogen and progesterone – a woman's womb gets ready for pregnancy.
Once every 21-40 days, an egg is released by the ovary, travels through the fallopian tubes and reaches the uterus. The inner lining of the uterus, called the endometrium forms a soft, cushiony layer made up of several minute blood vessels in anticipation of an embryo in case the egg is fertilized by a sperm.
If fertilization does not occur, there is no need to retain the uterine cushion as there is no embryo to nourish and protect. Dropping progesterone levels serve as a cue and the uterus sheds the cushiony blood vessel lining which flows out of the vagina as the menstrual flow.
The time between the first day of a menstrual period and the beginning of the next one is referred to as a menstrual cycle. Usually, a typical cycle lasts for 28 days. However, this differs from person to person and can last anywhere between 22 and 45 days.
Scientific studies reveal that on an average, a woman can lose anywhere between 30 and 90 ml of fluid which constitutes both of blood and mucosal tissue over 3-7 days of menstruation.
It may seem like you bleed a lot during your period, but most girls normally lose between 4 and 12 teaspoons of blood during an average period. Generally, it’s a good idea to change your pad at least every 4 hours. In the first days of your period, you may bleed more heavily and need to change it every 2-3 hours.
