Answers: i bleed for like a week how am i alive like why dont we die

Out of the 5.6 L of blood in our body, most periods cause us to lose only 10- 80 mL.

So basically the chances of dying are unlikely, especially since our body is continually replenishing our blood, but the chances of women having low iron is HUGE because of the fact we lose blood each month.

well when i went on the depo shots i bleed 3 months straight then went 1 week off and 3 more months bleeding... I didnt die even though i felt like i was gonna.... so i dont think its very likely that some1 could die from it... Report It

  • a period cleans our womanly system. naww i don't see how u can die unless u cant stop bleeding..someone that cant stop will die if they don't get help..

    dying is bad.

    we are made to bleed like that, and even dogs bleed when they are in heat, as for us humans, thank eve for that

    The answer's simple...because it just couldn't be THAT easy. Evil Evil CREATURES

    Because you barely lose a fraction of your blood and the blood you do lose isnt the same as the blood running through your veins. Even if it was however you lose it over a period of time and it would replenish itself so you wouldnt bleed to death from it anyway.
