What does aunt mean?

The use of Chinese character phrases can be said to be very magical. They have different meanings in different historical backgrounds and situations. Take "Aunt Flo" for example. This "Aunt Flo" is not that "Aunt Flo". Girls often say "Aunt Flo" is coming, which actually means that menstruation has come. If you really think that this Aunt Flo is a relative, then you have made a big joke. Why is menstruation called "Aunt Flo"? What kind of story will this contain?

Since when did "Aunt Flo" become synonymous with menstruation? Of course, there are many other names, such as menstruation, menstrual period, and monthly water.

About every month, the endometrium undergoes cyclical changes such as autonomous thickening, blood vessel proliferation, glandular growth and secretion, and endometrial collapse and shedding accompanied by bleeding. This cyclical vaginal discharge or uterine bleeding is called menstruation.

So why is menstruation called "Aunt Flo"? It is said that there was a woman named Jia in ancient times. Her parents died when she was young and she was raised by her aunt. She was also very pretty and was a pretty beauty.

A local scholar met this girl by chance and fell in love with her. He thought it would be great if he could marry her. Routines have always won people's hearts. From time to time, he would meet girls who were going out and pretend to say a few words to them. When you get to know each other better, give them small gifts.

The little girl was in love, and after a few interactions, the girl and the boy started dating. But I must not let my family know about this. I feel nervous every time I go on a date. When I hear footsteps, I will say, "My period is coming!" The two of them hid.

It wasn't a good idea not to propose marriage after dating for so long, so the boy finally found a matchmaker to propose marriage, and the two got married. On the wedding night, the man was very excited.

But the girl was in a dilemma, because her existing experience told her that today was not suitable for the wedding night. The little girl didn't have the nerve to say such things out loud. Finally, she suddenly had an idea and said to her newlywed husband, "My period is here, I can't do that..."

From then on, menstruation may gradually be called "period". So do you know the general knowledge about menstruation? Many people may feel shy about these things and never dare to talk about them, but now that the Internet is so developed, the necessary knowledge can be learned from the Internet.
