In the end, someone just had to try it and see what happened. And what happened was … nothing much. The uterus is pretty good at expelling its lining sans gravity, it turns out (after all, lying down doesn't seem to matter much). Dealing with space tampons is something of a nuisance, though, and space cramps aren't probably any nicer than Earth cramps. So now scientists have raised a possibility for female astronauts that has only begun to occur to most women—maybe we don't need to have periods at all.
最后 , 有人不得不去尝试 , 看看会发生什么 。 结果是......没啥事 。 事实证明 , 子宫很擅长在没有重力的情况下排出其内膜(毕竟 , 躺下似乎也没有什么关系) 。 不过 , 处理太空卫生棉条是一件麻烦事 , 而且在太空腹绞痛可能并不比在地球腹绞痛好 。 因此 , 现在科学家们为女性宇航员提出了一种可能性 , 这种可能性对大多数女性来说才开始出现--也许我们根本就不需要有月经 。
