Does your period come from where you poop?



The term “menstruation” is generally used to refer to a woman’s period. Menstruation does not come out of the anus; it is produced by the shedding of the uterine lining and bleeding, so it comes out of the vagina.

Menstruation is a normal physiological phenomenon of women, which occurs in the reproductive tract. It refers to the cyclic shedding of the endometrium that accompanies the cyclic changes of the ovaries, and menstrual blood is formed during the shedding of the endometrium, and the shedding of the endometrium further flows to the vagina through the cervical opening, and then out of the body through the vagina, so menstruation flows out of the vagina.

The anus belongs to the digestive tract, and bleeding in the anus is usually seen in hemorrhoids, colon lesions, rectal lesions and other conditions. If there is abnormal bleeding in the anus, you need to go to the hospital for examination, to clarify the cause of the disease, under the guidance of the doctor targeted treatment.
