Do i have my period or is it real blood?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Menstrual blood is different from circulating blood as it is a mixture of blood and uterine lining tissue, which are not found in regular blood. Please see your pcp as they will be more than willing to answer any questions for you regarding menstruation.
