\"woman<\/a><\/p>\n

How much do you think you know about your period? I bet not too much. Apart from the fact the period is part of the menstrual cycle when a woman bleeds for a few days, most women know nothing else.<\/p>\n

Below are 4 things every woman should know about her period<\/p>\n

1. WOMEN GET PMS DUE TO HORMONAL CHANGES<\/b><\/p>\n

A lot of women definitely know about PMS (premenstrual syndrome) but not a lot of women know why it even occurs. PMS occurs because your body is sensitive to hormone levels – progesterone and estrogen \u2013 changing rapidly. These hormonal changes can cause symptoms such as\u00a0bloating, mood swings,\u00a0headache, breast\u00a0tenderness, and\u00a0fatigue\u00a0in some women.<\/p>\n

2. IT\u2019S POSSIBLE TO GET PREGNANT DURING YOUR PERIOD<\/b><\/p>\n

Experts say it\u2019s not likely you could get pregnant during your period but it\u2019s possible. According to experts, if you have s*x toward the end of your period and ovulate two or three days later with the sperm still inside of you, it\u2019s possible you could get pregnant. Remember it\u2019s not likely but it\u2019s possible.<\/p>\n

3. STRESS CAUSES IRREGULAR PERIOD<\/b><\/p>\n

Have you ever wondered what could be the cause of your irregular period? Well according to experts, stress, illness, excessive weight gain or loss, hormonal problems, strenuous exercise and eating disorders can adversely affect a woman\u2019s cycle.<\/p>\n

4. SEEING YOUR PERIOD DOESN\u2019T MEAN YOU ARE NOT PREGNANT<\/b><\/p>\n

Just because you started seeing your period doesn\u2019t mean you should be 100% certain you are not pregnant. According to experts, your period could just be you bleeding which happens in early pregnancy and it\u2019s difficult to tell the difference sometimes. Experts advise you go for a pregnancy test if it doesn\u2019t progress as a regular period. Don\u2019t be in a hurry to conclude it\u2019s your period because it could just be bleeding in early pregnancy.<\/p>\n
