Why do my periods stop whenever i take a shower?


Question:
I have this weird problem.My periods cycle is absolutely normal.The first two days of my periods is very heavy but suddenly they stop or even if take a shower they stop on the third or fourth day.CAn anybody explain this to me.

Answers:
Nothing weird about it...the blood flow stops or seems to stop because of washing yourself and washing the blood from the entrance of your vagina...same thing if you swim without wearing a tampon...if you have a normal period you wont have blood trailing behind you in the water because you only normally bleed about 70 to 100 mls during a 5 day average period...not liters as it sometimes feels.Haven't you noticed if you wash after going to the toilet with wet wipes etc and put on a new pad its a while until there's any blood flow again? Obviously this is the norm...not everyone has what the books say we should.
Mine stops for a while when I take a shower, then it comes back. Anyway it doesn't sound like you have a prfoblem, ask your doctor just in case.
