Menstrual disintegration of the mucosa

Cyclic changes in the female body are most pronounced in the reproductive system associated with ovulation, and those that result in bleeding from the uterus are called the menstrual cycle. Bleeding is a period when there is a disintegration of the mucosa in the uterus.

On what phases of the menstrual cycle can be divided

In the menstrual cycle, several phases can be isolated. This phase of growth( follicular, vesicle) lasts approximately two weeks( with a cycle of 28 days).The middle of the cycle is ovulation, during which a ripened graafa bursts, releasing the already ready to fertilize egg. Then follows the phase of the cycle - luteal( this is the phase of the yellow body) lasts 10 days. The next, the final phase of the menstrual cycle is menstrual bleeding, when the mucosa disintegrates in the womb. Violation of any phase of this cycle in a woman of reproductive age is considered a pathology.

In the future, when the egg is not fertilized, then it dies, and the yellow body undergoes reverse development. After( before the monthly), the mucous membranes of the uterus are torn, the uterine mucosa is sloughed, then rejected, and the blood from them pours directly into the thickness of the mucous membrane. Then there is a rejection of the mucous membrane, bleeding begins( menstruation).After the end of menstruation, the mucous membrane heals, and the cycle begins again.

Menstrual bleeding is the secretion of blood along with the detached fragments of the mucous membrane. Not all the fragments of the mucosal disintegration slip off simultaneously and therefore menstruation lasts several days. In most cases, its duration is from four to seven days, and the amount of blood lost during this time does not exceed 150 ml. As a rule, most blood from the body is removed in the first two days of the month. Under the action of enzymes that are present in the mucous membrane of the uterus, the menstrual blood becomes more fluid, non-inverting.

Sterile menstrual blood at the time of exit from the cervix, more precisely from its canal, passing through the vagina, encountering the bacterial flora, already acquires a specific smell, sometimes weak, and sometimes strong - it depends on the individual characteristics of the woman. When menstrual disintegration of the mucous uterus, blood clots can always be present only in those women who have abundant from nature, natural for them menstruation. In all other cases, this phenomenon is a signal of pathology in the body, which requires a doctor.
