As paulothemanio rightly points out, this song is not about a woman's period, however, using the phrase "only women bleed" helps develop the idea that women are fragile. The metaphor could even extend to include a girl losing her virginity. These connotations reinforce the main idea of the song (domestic abuse) and evokes empathy from the listener by showing the pain and suffering that a woman faces in life.
Truely a great song from a great album, so unstereotypically Alice Cooper that it is attributed to his covers.
