Simply peritoneal fluid, which is routinely found in the posterior cul-de-sac.

The primary function of the uterus is in reproduction; the conduit for sperm transport, and the site for implantation of fertilized ova, placentation,  growth and development of the fetus, and parturition (labor and delivery).

A fibroid is an overgrowth of smooth muscle cells in your uterus.  They can be anywhere in the cervix, the endometrium, or in the body of the uterus itself.  These usually are benign and the only problems they can cause is excessive bleeding and pain.  Just keep an eye on it and your periods to make sure there aren't any changes and follow up with your doctor regularly.

its the time before periods. during periods, all the unused ovum is expelled out along with some blood, and hence they bleed during periods. (periods => menstruation period)

Sorry Maggie you are incorrect. Endometriosis is the presence of normal endometrial mucosa (glands and stroma) ABNORMALLY implanted in locations OTHER than the uterine cavity. This tissue, possessing the same steroid receptors as normal endometrium, is capable of responding to the normal cycles of hormones. One theory of spread is thought to be dispersion of ectopic (meaning where it should not be) inplants throughout the peritoneal cavity (area where your bowels, liver reside) during menstruation, since sloughing off of products of endometrial tissue from the uterus is not just unidirectional (out through the cervix then vagina, but also up through the fallopian tubes leading to the body cavity known as retrograde flow. This is common in women and can't fully explain endometriosis. Endometriosis has even been found on structures even above the diaphragm. Endometriosis responds and is driven by estrogen. There are reports of women with endometriosis occuring after hysterectomy and removal of the ovaries (which makes estrogens). Women normally continue to make lower levels of weaker estrogens even after their ovaries have been removed. Some women for whatever reason continue to make high levels, and this is thought to be a reason for further symptoms.\n\nTo answer your question simply, yes, it can still grow

Fibroids are knots of overgrown muscle tissue of the uterus. They can cause pain and irregular or heavy menstrual bleeding. If the problem is bad enough, the treatment is surgery-hysterectomy

That's normal - that is part of your period.  Remember it's not just blood coming out but also dead tissue from the lining of the uterus

I'm not sure what constant fluid means but I think you may be talking about a vaginal discharge. This should be checked out for any STD's, yeast infection, or even vaginosis which some women develop an over growth of bacteria. Most are easily treated and not IUD related. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon.

it's because during the menstrual cycle the membrane known as hymen ruptures.The blood which comes out in form of liquid and semisolid material is this membrane itself.If a girl conceives  then it is this membrane which provides nourishment to the ovum.

maybe its the uterine lining. the menstrual blood is composed of partly blood and partly tissue. the uterus produces a lining and it gets thicker and thicker due to our hormones. if pregnancy does not occur, hormones drop, and the uterus sheds its lining during the menstrual period.\n\nbut for you to be sure, you should go to a gynecologist and check what really that is.

In physiology, the term serous fluid is used for various bodily fluids that are typically pale yellow and transparent, and of a benign nature.\nSaliva consists of mucus and serous fluid; the serous fluid contains the enzyme amylase important for the digestion of carbohydrates.\nAnother type of serous fluid is secreted by the serous membranes (or serosa), two layered membranes which line the body cavities. The serous fluid between the two layers acts as a lubricant and reduces friction from muscle movement.\nBlood plasma is the liquid component of blood, in which the blood cells are suspended. Plasma is the largest single component of blood, making up about 55% of total blood volume. Serum refers to blood plasma in which clotting factors (such as fibrin) have been removed. Blood plasma contains many vital proteins including fibrinogen, globulins and human serum albumin.

The blood originates in tiny vessels that have formed in the built-up lining of the uterus in anticipation of a possible pregnancy. When the hormone levels drop just prior to the start of a new cycle,  these vessels break off with the shed uterine lining, and that produces the bleeding.

It is your bodies way of expelling the endometrial lining in your uterus (aka period).

Since the egg can't get past the 'knot' (it's usually cauterized though) it just sits in the fallopian tube until the body reabsorbs it. The sperm stays on the other side of the knot so they they never meet. Since the uterus is unaffected, you still have normal menstruation.

Go see your doctor or OB/Gyn.

water retention or edema...is a condition where your body holds onto the water reserves in your body, for various reasons.  You may be dehydrated, have liver or kidney functioning problems (your waste system may have something wrong with it), it comes from many things.  Women tend to retain more water than men, because water rentention is also due to fluctuating hormone levels, which happens during your period.

To say uterus will be too undetailed. Fetal development occurs in the endometrium of the uterus, which is the uterine lining. \n\nBoth the placenta and the amniotic sac originates from the endometrium, which also facilitates diffusion of nutrients btw the mom and the fetus thru the umbilical cord. hope that helped
