It’s funny because this is a very valid question. Pathetic to see this response though. But to answer-
Yes, menstruation can occur. Menstruation is controlled mainly by hormones from the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and ovaries, not by consciousness itself. So if those hormonal pathways are still functioning and the brain injury doesn’t damage the endocrine centers, a woman in a coma can still ovulate and menstruate normally.
Also important to highlight that some coma patients stop menstruating though, especially if there’s severe brain injury or damage to the hypothalamus/pituitary axis. So it depends on the cause and severity of the coma. 👍
Doctor here. People need to calm down with turning every early study into proof of a miracle or proof of disaster. GLP-1 drugs are showing some interesting signals, but association is not causation and medicine has buried a lot of exciting headlines after bigger studies showed a different story.
Players have been hunting fouls for years, people only start giving speeches about respecting the game when a team they don’t like gets good at it. If it works and refs keep calling it, fans can cry all day but nobody is volunteering to score less points.
Recently sat for the United States Medical Licensing Examination Step 1 and smashed it. The amount of stress, sleepless nights and random moments where I genuinely felt like I wasn’t doing enough was crazy. Feels good seeing the hard work finally pay off. If you’re currently preparing, I’d be happy to help, share tips or guide where necessary.

People keep acting like she’s against the prenup itself when that’s not even the issue. Protecting what you built is normal.
Saying cheating changes absolutely nothing is where it starts sounding one sided.
People see one clip of a guy not acting like a dancing monkey for cameras and quickly decide something must be wrong with him. Maybe he just doesn’t enjoy media stuff. Crazy idea I know. We’ve reached a point where if somebody isn’t loud, fake smiling and performing for strangers 24/7 people act like they need to be investigated.
