The real question is, when did Mad Max have the time to become a research gynecologist?
Well, there's a lot of down time beyond Thunderdome.
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

So what's the what with periods and agenesis? Apart from just not having one -- how far up the chain of menstruation events is affected?>
I think it depends on whether the woman has a uterus or not. According to the site above, this will not keep a woman from having a baby, as long as she has a uterus and a vagina is constructed.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If you have a uterus and no vagina, where does the uterine lining go every month?

Well, she's already done that for M$B, hasn't she? But yeah -- the Crow/Clooney/Diesel effort seems to be mainly matched in women by them not wearing as much foundation.
I do think we should give props to Salma Hayek for adopting Frida Kahlo's unibrow. Not to mention the monkey.

When Clooney/Crowe/Diesel gain fat, I've never heard anyone say "Oh, that's better! I hope they don't go back to looking like they did before!"
Well, I said that about Christian Bale.

maybe the menstrual blood just gets absorbed into the body in the abdominal cavity? Isn't that what happens in endometriosis?

ita, I think Sophia might be right about the body absorbing the blood. Her link says:
Since the ovaries produce the normal hormones that cause girls to go through puberty, most girls have breast and pubic hair by this time. Usually what brings girls to their doctor is the fact that they have not had their period yet.
The most interesting thing about the link is that it sounds like the nonsurgical treatment is, basically, masturbating with a dildo every day. But I wonder how that makes the canal deep enough to reach the cervix, without surgery.

I want my body to reabsorb the uterine lining.
Why would it do that? Just because it never gets out?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Why would it do that?
Because if it didn't, you might end up with internal gangrene, and die. Right? (I am only guessing, but it seems plausible.)
