Q: For a couple of days I’ve been having nose bleeds and I assume it would just eventually stop. After a day of a nose bleed, I go in the shower and a couple of minutes later, my nose starts to bleed for some reason.

Why do some girls/women get nose bleeds before or during their period?

Q: This has been on going for quite sometime now and I’ve only sensed something even more wrong in the past few days.I’ve always had regular nose bleeds right before my period.

There are sometimes when the nose bleeds continue during my periods, and it seems as though I get alot less menstural blood than what I normally would get without nose bleedS during the period. This is so weird…. Can anyone explain to me why this happens?

A: I would suggest going to the doctor about this cause this could be a sign of something wrong with your puteratery gland. I dont mean to scare you its just ive never heard of this.
