"A visit from (Aunt) Flo" = dì Flo đến thăm -> nghĩa là (con gái) đến kỳ kinh nguyệt. "Flo" là viết ngắn của "Florence" (máu chảy từ tử cung).

Ví dụ
The prospect (viễn cảnh) was about as appealing to me as the monthly visit from Aunt Flo, but I'd tolerate (chịu đựng) his presence because I couldn't bear to be alone.

“Why are you so happy? Did you get your period?”
“Mom!”
“Well, I was just wondering if Aunt Flo came to visit.”

If death is the curse of Adam, what then is the curse of Eve? The answer to that question goes by many different names : “that time of the month,” “a visit from Aunt Flo,” “being on the rag,” “my friend,” and other euphemisms (uyển ngữ) too numerous to list .

“Answer the question, Emily. When's the last time you had your period?”
Trying hard to remember the last time she did receive a visit from “Aunt Flo,” Emily rushed her hand through her hair. “I'm not sure. The second week of October, maybe."
