Menstruation

    Menstruation is a monthly sloughing off of the lining of the underutilized womb. Menstruation has different meanings in different societies while it has different significance for different women. But most society share the view that mensuration is a sign of sexual maturity although it does not necessarily indicate reproductive maturity.
    Some girls readily accept the first menstrual period. They are joyful and excited while others are ashamed. This indicates how well girls are prepared for menarche, in terms of both information and attitudes. In recent times, menarche has been occurring earlier than attitude. Girls first menarche is in between 12 years.
    Many researches have been carried out in recent years to determine the psychological effects of the marked fluctuations of hormonal levels that are connected to the menstrual cycle. One of the research says that most women experience depression, irritability, anxiety, and low self esteem during the days immediately preceding menstruation. Other researchers have also correlated women's well being with hormonal levels. Women are more alert at the beginning of the menstrual cycle, more relaxed at ovulation, angrier, more excitable and more tired during the premenstrual period. It was noted that the arrival of the menses usually brings some relaxation of tension, and as oestrogen production increases, the woman continues to feel better. But these observation did not apply for all women but majority of them could be said to experience these.
