One of the main problems I have with Monster Hunter games is that you can't see the monster's health and the boss monsters are usually very long fights. After 10mins or so of wailing on a monster I start to get impatient and then start making careless mistakes. And some monsters regenerate their health which makes battles even more tedious.

Make sure you're attacking the right body parts - you do more damage hitting the head of most monsters than the feet, for example (World having damage numbers makes this easier to see). Hacking away at a monsters toenails takes forever, stabbing it in the face results in much faster fights.

And no, monsters don't regenerate as a general rule. If you let them sleep for long enough they'll recover a very, very minor amount of health. That's basically it. There are three monsters in the series that I know of who can heal themselves and two aren't in World anyway (and their healing is pretty minor and rarely used), and the third only does it if you try to be lame and run away from the room he's in for too long
