If a woman never had a period, what happens to the old blood?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fills uterus: If a woman never has a period she needs no be evaluated for several things. The most common is an imperforate hymen where the blood can't come out if the vagina. In this case the blood builds up and can back up out of the tubes. This is very unhealthy for the uterus.
