Yes, menstrual blood is real blood, but I can understand why you ask. Sometimes it just doesnât look like the blood when you have a cut. Thatâs because in addition to losing 4 to 12 teaspoons of blood per cycle, youâre also shedding the lining of your uterus. Doesnât much make for a pretty sight, but itâs totally natural. Yes, it is REALLY blood! During the second half of your cycle, the lining of your uterus (endometrium) begins to thicken in preparation for a fertilized egg. By then end of the cycle, if this does not happen, the hormones progesterone and estrogen begin to fall and that thickened endometrium begins to slough off.
For most women this happens every 28 days or so, but it's common for periods to start sooner or later than this, ranging from day 24 to day 35. Your period can last between three and eight days, but it will usually last for about five days. The bleeding tends to be heaviest in the first two days. When your period is at its heaviest, the blood will be red. On lighter days, it may be pink, brown or black. You'll lose about 30 to 72 millilitres (5 to 12 teaspoons) of blood during your period, although some women bleed more heavily than this.
