Do animals also have periods?

Question

I think they do have, but not sure.

Answer 1

Animals that have menstrual cycle: All Female 

• Bats
• Elephants
• Cats
• Dogs
• Mice
• Monkeys
• Girraffes 
• Most female animals have a period

Answer 2

The only animal that menstruate are elephant shrews and certain bats. Dogs have estrus cycle which is sometimes called a "heat cycle". 

Comments

Very true I agree with you animals can't undergo real menstruation like human beings

---

Yes they can. Asides human, elephants, primates and dogs do menstruate.

Answer 3

All-female mammals have some sort of estrus cycle- periods of fertility and infertile periods. However very few of them are like humans.

Answer 4

Animals don't menstruate exactly like humans except some bats and elephant shrew.some placental mamal undergo estrous cycle in which they reabsorb endometrium.

Answer 5

Yes animals do have periods. Because they too are male, female and otherwise so obviously the females would have periods. Because of menstrual cycle we exist if you know science you will understand the logic behind it. So yes they have it and if you want to avoid then buy a male animal as pet.

Answer 6

Yes animals do have period .In humans we call menstrual cycle but in animals we call estrous cycle.

For example if we take cattle 

Their estrous cycle length is 21 days and they show bleeding(we call it as metestrus bleeding ) for 2-3 days similar as in humans.

In dogs there is proestrous bleeding.

For better understanding you should read about menstrual cycle in humans compared with estrous cycle in animals

Answer 7

Most fema creature do have reproductive systems which after a certain period of time so yeah they do have their periods.so why not go on periods.

Answer 8

Every female animal has an estrus cycle, which includes fertile and infertile intervals. However, only a small percentage of them are human-like.

Humans MENSTRUATE, which entails a period of infertility during which the uterine lining breaks down and is removed. We also have hidden estrus, which means neither the guys nor the girls have a clear indication that now is the day to start a family.

When a female animal is viable, she will have a discharge or hormonal/scent changes, which is known as estrus or heat. In dogs, for example, bloody discharge indicates that she is ready to ovulate, which is the only period when males would try to breed her. Instead, many/most of the creatures that cycle this way reabsorb.

Answer 9

Yes, many female animals, including mammals, have a reproductive cycle that involves a period of bleeding, commonly referred to as a "heat" or "estrous" cycle. This bleeding is similar to the menstrual cycle experienced by human females. During the cycle, the animal's reproductive system prepares for pregnancy and, if fertilization does not occur, the lining of the uterus is shed, resulting in bleeding. The length and frequency of the heat cycle can vary greatly between species. For example, while the menstrual cycle of human females typically lasts between 3 to 7 days and occurs once a month, the heat cycle of a dog typically lasts between 2 to 3 weeks and occurs twice a year. It's important to note that not all female animals have a heat cycle, and some species have a more continuous breeding cycle, with no period of bleeding. Additionally, some species, such as reptiles and birds, do not have a menstrual cycle and instead shed their eggs without bleeding.

Answer 10

Most female mammals have estrous cycle, yet only ten primate species, four bat species, the elephant shrew and one known species of spiny mouse have the mensuration periods

Answer 11

most of them have periods sessions in females. periods are natural. but in old animals have no period cycle. only those female animals have periods cycle which can produce kids

Answer 12

Yes, some animals have periods or estrous cycles, including primates, some bats, shrews, and certain species of rodents, carnivores, and whales.

Answer 13

Most female mammals have an estrous cycle, yet only ten primate species, four bat species, the elephant shrew, and one known species of spiny mouse have a menstrual cycle. As these groups are not closely related, it is likely that four distinct evolutionary events have caused menstruation to arise.

Answer 14

 an estrous cycle, yet only ten primate species, four bat species, the elephant shrew, and one known species of spiny mouse have a menstrual cycle. As these groups are not closely related, it is likely that four distinct evolutionary events have caused menstruation to arise.

Answer 15

obviously the females would have periods. Because of menstrual cycle we exist if you know science you will understand the logic behind it. So yes they have it and if you want to avoid then buy a male animal as pet.
