Article Excerpts about Menstruation
A menstrual cycle is how a woman's body prepares for the possibility of
pregnancy each month. A menstrual period is just one part of this cycle. A
cycle's length is determined by counting from the first day of one period
to the first day of the next period. The average menstrual cycle is 28
days long. However, a cycle can range anywhere from 23 days to 35 days.

Definitions of Menstruation:
The monthly discharge of blood from the uterus of nonpregnant women from puberty to menopause; "the women were sickly and subject to excessive menstruation"; "a woman does not take the gout unless her menses be stopped"--Hippocrates; "the semen begins to appear in males and to be emitted at the same time of life that the catamenia begin to flow in females"--Aristotle
