Good question. I can see how this monthly occurrence would cause a problem in Edward and Bella's relationship. However, this is not an issue that Stephanie Meyer addresses. As you know, the Cullen family practice a unique kind of vampirism whereas they only drink the blood of animals and not humans. The urge is still there , they just choose to ignore it. For the most part, most of the Cullens avoid situations where they will be exposed to the scent of human blood. For example, Edward skips science class on the day they test for their blood types. On Bella's birthday, she cuts her hand on a broken vase and the others must hold their noses and leave the house until it is cleaned. It is difficult for all of them to have Bella as a part or their lives when things like this can occur. The only member of the Cullens who seem impervious to the scent of human blood is Carlisle who is a doctor.
