Critical days have always been the "privilege" of women. Someone considered them a weakness of the fair sex, and someone - on the contrary, a strength. One way or another, menstruation symbolizes a woman's ability to produce offspring, and their special frequency - the ability to have a permanent sexual life. On the other hand, men are also involved in childbearing and can have intimate contact throughout the year. Previously, it was believed that they owe this exclusively to the female body - or rather, menstruation - but in fact, everything is not quite so. There are special "periods" for men.
Is there a difference?
The solution to this riddle lies in the structure of the human body. With the exception of sexual characteristics, men and women are absolutely identical. That is, there is no such organ in the body of a lady that could not be found - at least in some form - from her gentleman. Of course, if you set yourself the task of finding a uterus, vagina or ovaries in men, this idea will not be crowned with success - otherwise the notorious award to a man who gave birth to a child would have already been awarded more than once - but there are also “analogues” of female genital organs representatives of the strong half of humanity. And therefore quiteit would be logical to assume that menstruation is just as possible for guys as for their girlfriends.
Really?
To deal with this delicate issue, it is necessary to explain the very essence of menstruation. It is a "miscarriage" of a dead egg, accompanied by bleeding.
But that's not the point. Much more important is the reason for this process, which explains its cyclicity, namely, a hormonal surge. If the stronger sex has organs similar to those of women, then there is also the production of hormones similar in action. And this means that menstruation is possible!
Why does no one notice this?
Of course, one should not expect that every month young people will bleed from a causal place, and they will run to the nearest store for hygiene products. Since the reproduction of the egg is really a woman's privilege, the male body has nothing to throw away, and therefore there is no secretion. That is why this article separates the concepts of "menstruation in men" and "menstruation in women".
So what's the truth?
Yes, it is not surprising to get confused here. Let's try to figure it out. The so-called "monthly" in men are purely emotional. That is, they, like women, have a hormonal cycle. And hormones are known to affect overall well-being and mood.
Therefore, men have periods, but it is not so easy to notice them - the stronger sex just gets worse about once every 28-30 daysmood, everything starts to fall out of hand, efficiency drops. Only and everything!
Do all men suffer from "it"?
Similar processes in the body of the stronger sex are not speculation at all, but a medical fact. And they happen to everyone, just some people may be invisible. Exactly the same thing can be seen in women: someone becomes depressed, suffers from pain and does not get out of bed, while someone retains the same cheerfulness and ability to work. Each organism is individual, and therefore the same processes are perceived by different people in completely different ways!
