A #menstrual #period is #vaginal bleeding that occurs at the end of the menstrual cycle. Each month, the #female #body prepares itself for a possible #pregnancy. The #uterus develops a thicker #lining, and the ovaries release an #egg that can be #fertilized by #sperm.
If the #egg isn’t fertilized, #pregnancy won’t occur during that cycle. The body then sheds the built-up uterine lining. The result is a period, or menstruation.
The average female will have their first period between ages 11 and 14. Periods will continue regularly (usually monthly) until #menopause, or about age 51.
