We usually don\u2019t know precisely what is going on in our body. It\u2019s time for a&nbsp;little menstrual crash course \u201cMenstruation 101\u201d! Because a&nbsp;more comprehensive understanding of our period can also improve our relationship with it. In six simple steps we will approach menstruation and give you all the important information about your monthly bleeding. A&nbsp;small booklet for your menstruation, a&nbsp;kind of Menstruation 101. Let\u2019s&nbsp;go!<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is menstruation exactly?<\/h3>\n\n<p>Menstruation is the process by which menstrual blood is discharged monthly through the vagina. This usually takes place from puberty to menopause. Did you know that the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/my-first-period-started-in-a-cinema-in-berlin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">first period<\/a>&nbsp;is also called menarche? The period is part of the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/what-influence-do-the-phases-of-the-menstrual-cycle-have-on-your-mood\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">natural menstrual cycle regulated by hormones<\/a>. Monthly bleeding is called menstruation, period, menses and an infinite number of other synonyms or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/period-euphemisms-call-it-by-its-name-period\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">euphemisms<\/a>. Which expressions do you know and use mostly for your menstruation? Feel free to write it in the comments at the bottom of the article.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why are we bleeding every&nbsp;month?<\/h3>\n\n<p>The lining of the uterus changes during the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/cycle-awareness-in-harmony-with-ones-own-body\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">menstrual cycle<\/a>&nbsp;depending on the hormones in the body, especially estrogen. Your body is preparing for a&nbsp;possible pregnancy! The fertilised egg could implant itself in the thicker lining of the uterus, marking the beginning of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/sex-toys-during-pregnancy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pregnancy<\/a>. However, if the implantation of the egg has not been successful, menstruation begins about 10 to 16 days after ovulation. The beginning of menstruation marks the first day of a&nbsp;new cycle. Menstruation is a&nbsp;cleansing process that is important for the&nbsp;body.<\/p><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><ul class=\"wp-block-social-links is-layout-flex wp-block-social-links-is-layout-flex\"><\/ul><\/div><\/div><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What happens to the body during menstruation?<\/h3><p>During menstruation, the monthly build-up of the uterine lining is reduced again. The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/when-period-blood-turns-into-art-a-photo-gallery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">menstrual blood<\/a>&nbsp;and menstrual tissue flow out of the uterus through the small opening in the cervix. Menstruation is the monthly discharge of blood and mucosal tissue that has built up in the uterine lining during the menstrual cycle.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Myth menstrual blood, what\u2019s really in&nbsp;it?<\/h3><p>Strictly speaking, menstrual blood is not just blood, but rather a&nbsp;mixture of blood, discharged uterine lining and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.plannedparenthood.org\/learn\/birth-control\/fertility-awareness\/whats-cervical-mucus-method-fams\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cervical mucus<\/a>. Other dead cells are also found in the mix. For this reason, the menstrual blood is not completely liquid, but rather carries small bits or clumps with it as well. The better term for menstrual blood would probably be menstrual flow. You can see the different consistencies particularly well if you use a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/how-to-use-the-menstrual-cup-correctly-your-step-by-step-advice-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">menstrual cup<\/a>. With a&nbsp;cup, everything is first collected in a&nbsp;container and the menstrual fluid is not directly absorbed, as it happens with&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/menstruation-in-numbers-expenses-products-waste\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">tampons<\/a>.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-2 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Menstruationsblut-Cropped.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1951\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Menstruationsblut-Cropped.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Menstruationsblut-Cropped-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Und welche Farbe hat dein Menstruationsblut?<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What color should the menstrual blood&nbsp;be?<\/h3><p>The coloration of the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/when-period-blood-turns-into-art-a-photo-gallery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">menstrual blood<\/a>&nbsp;can range from light red to bloody red. Brown to almost black are also possible colours. However, attention should be paid here. The colour of your menstrual blood can tell you a&nbsp;lot about your health.&nbsp;At the beginning of your menstruation, the blood is still fresh and usually bright red. At the end of your period, the colour of the menstrual flow turns to reddish-brown. The colour change is related to how fresh or \u2018old\u2019 the menstrual blood is and whether the blood has already reacted with oxygen. The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/is-my-period-normal-all-about-your-menstruation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">heaviness of the menstruation<\/a>&nbsp;also influences the colour of the menstrual fluid. For example, if the bleeding is heavier, the menstrual blood is dark red with small clumps. During a&nbsp;lighter period, the colour is light pink. Slight spotting immediately before menstruation, also called premenstrual bleeding, is often brownish.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How much blood do I&nbsp;lose per period?<\/h3><p>On average, around 35 millilitres of blood are lost per menstruation. Such numbers are somehow always difficult to grasp. To be able to imagine it better: 35 ml correspond to about two to three tablespoons! But everything between 10 and 80 ml blood loss per menstruation is normal. So you should have at least one tablespoon of blood a&nbsp;month and it could be up to six tablespoons. Doesn\u2019t sound like much, does it? If you use a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/how-to-find-the-best-menstrual-cup-for-you\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">menstrual cup<\/a>, you can pay attention to how much blood you really lose during your next menstruation.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/how-can-i-change-my-menstrual-cup-in-public-toilets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Menstrual cups<\/a>&nbsp;usually have a&nbsp;capacity of 10-25 ml. You want to see, how much that actually is?&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/CTzjZylD95p\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Check out our Reel on Instagram!<\/a><br>People who have an elevated estrogen level usually bleed more due to the unbalanced hormone levels. Gynaecological diseases, such as&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/endometriosis-the-unknown-disease\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">endometriosis<\/a>, can additionally increase menstrual bleeding. People with a&nbsp;low oestrogen level, on the other hand, have relatively mild bleeding.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Have you ever been more intensively involved with your period?<\/h3><p>Your&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vulvani.com\/en\/is-my-period-normal-all-about-your-menstruation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">menstruation<\/a>&nbsp;is your monthly and free-of-charge health check.
