Your period is more than the shedding of the uterine lining. It’s a complex physiological process that reflects what’s happening throughout your entire body. Menstruation is driven by shifts in estrogen, progesterone, and inflammatory signals, and those changes influence immune function, metabolism, mineral balance, and even how your body processes stress.

If your period pain feels “too much”… it might actually be too much. Sometimes the lining that should stay inside the uterus ends up outside — on the ovaries, behind uterus, or nearby organs. That’s endometriosis. This can lead to: ✔️ Severe cramps ✔️ Bloating ✔️ Pain during intimacy ✔️ Pelvic pain ✔️ Trouble getting pregnant 🎥 What actually happens when you have endometriosis?

HEALTH | MEDICAL | BIOLOGY on Instagram: "Menstrual cramps happen when your uterus contracts to shed its inner lining. During your period, the hormone prostaglandins increases-this triggers strong contractions that help push out the menstrual blood. But when prostaglandin levels are high, the uterus squeezes too hard, reducing blood flow and oxygen to the muscles, which creates sharp, throbbing pain in the lower belly, back, and thighs. These contractions can also cause nausea, fatigue, and head

BIOLOGY | MEDICAL | HEALTH on Instagram: "During your period, the uterus contracts to shed its inner lining (endometrium). These contractions are triggered by chemicals called prostaglandins. Higher prostaglandin levels = stronger contractions = more pain. As the uterus tightens, it can temporarily reduce blood flow and oxygen to the uterine muscles. This lack of oxygen causes pain, pressure, and cramping, often felt in the lower abdomen, lower back, or thighs. Once the lining is expelled and pr

SUMMARY: Period cramps happen because the uterus releases prostaglandins (chemicals that tell the uterus to contract, to help shed the uterine lining). Higher prostaglandin levels cause more intense and more frequent contractions, which can temporarily decrease blood flow and oxygen delivery to the uterine muscle. Less oxygen = interpreted as pain. The uterus is also connected to the nervous system, so those contractions can reflexively tighten nearby abdominal muscles, adding to the general cra

Does your uterus get bigger during your period? I’m a high-risk OB/GYN, and here’s what you need to know, featuring Madyn’s hand to demonstrate.😂 Your uterus is normally about the size of a closed fist. During your period, it only gets about 10-15% bigger due to increased blood flow. It contracts to shed what’s called the endometrial lining, and that’s your period! So if your uterus doesn’t actually get that much bigger, why do you feel so bloated and like none of your jeans fit? It’s all about
