period blood only comes out when i sit on toilet
Hey Herbie, I notice that my period blood only comes out when I sit on the toilet, is this normal?
Hi there! Periods can behave differently for different individuals. It's normal for some people to experience this because when you're sitting or squatting, your muscles are more relaxed which might make the blood come out more. However, each person's body is unique.
Oh I see, I have been worried. How come it doesn't flow continuously?
The body regulates the flow of period blood. During menstruation, it doesn't always continuously flow out. When you're active, your muscles contract and can slow the flow. Similarly, when you rest or sit down, your muscles relax and the blood flow may increase.
Does this mean anything about my health?
Not necessarily. As explained, the flow and frequency might be affected by many factors like physical activity, stress, and more. However, if you notice a profound change or experience discomfort, you should consult a healthcare provider to rule out potential health issues.
Alright Herbie, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for your help!
You're welcome! Remember, listening to your body and consulting with healthcare professionals when in doubt are always good steps. Take care!
