During a period, there are usually 2-3 days of relatively heavy bleeding followed by 2-4 days of lighter flow. The fluid during a menstrual period is a mixture of uterine lining tissue and blood. The total mo nthly menstrual loss varies from about 4 to 12 teaspoons.
Menstrual bleeding usually lasts for about 5 days, but this too can vary, from 2 to 7 days. When menstruation first starts, it can take up to 2 years to establish a regular cycle. After puberty, most women's menstruation is regular. The length of time between each period is similar. However, for some women, the time between periods and the amount of blood shed vary considerably.
