Boys do not have periods because they do not have a menstrual cycle. Periods are a result of the shedding of the lining of the uterus when pregnancy does not occur. Boys do not have a uterus or the hormones needed to support a menstrual cycle.

Is it period or implantation bleeding?

It is important to consult a healthcare provider to determine if bleeding is due to a menstrual period or implantation. Generally, period bleeding is heavier and lasts longer, while implantation bleeding is lighter and shorter in duration, often appearing as light spotting. Additionally, characteristics such as timing and color of the bleeding can help differentiate between the two.


Can boys have periods?

Yes, some boys will menstruate.Some men have a vagina, uterus, and ovaries so will menstruate just like cis women do. Remember that not all men have a penis, and some men have a vagina.Cis men do not have periods or "that time of the month" - menstruation is a specific function, it is not just women being moody and getting menstrual cramps. It's sexist to suggest that women's menstruation is just their being moody and cramping, neither of these are a normal part of menstruation but part of a social construct around menstruation or a result of hormonal imbalance.


Why do women get their periods?

Women get their period due to the shedding of the lining of the uterus, which occurs when a fertilized egg is not implanted. This process is regulated by hormones in the body and typically happens once a month.
