Period Talk!

Haha awesome thread. So many 12 year old boys are about to freak out. Anyways to answer your questions I was 12, I only use tampons (but have always wanted to try a cup), and to make them less horrible I take birth control and always have Naproxen near by.
Also I went to an all girls school from grades 2 -12 so I was really weirded out when I started post-high school life and all of a sudden everyone was uncomfortable talking about periods. In high school there was no discomfort talking about it all the time.

luv me some period talk. ok so i was on the pill because my cramp feels like someone has taken a chainsaw to my abdomen but i felt myself going through really intense mood swings (ok but what's new am i right) so i thought i'd stop it for a bit, kinda regretting that decision now. i got my first period at 13 and i use tampons.
eating is the only thing that makes me feel like their might be hope

I think I was 12 or 13? One time I woke up pretty late and I didn't have anything to eat for awhile. All of a sudden my cramps got so bad and I was breaking out into a cold sweat. My face was really pale and I couldn't even walk to the sofa so I had to lay of the floor lol. I ended up sleeping it off but I felt like I was going to die in my sleep or smt haha. I really need to buy a heated pad - those things are heavenly
I got my first period literally the day after I turned 11, while I was still in 5th grade. It didn't help that I had it in my Spongebob pajamas... I've always used pads, mostly the ones with wings due to thick thighs scrunching up the ones without. I used to never get cramps with my period up until I was 15, then I had to start taking iron tablets at the start of the month so I didn't get them.

guys this is nasty O.O
it's a natural body function. why did you click this if you didn't want to see it?
no! bad boy!, get outta hheeeeerrrre lmao
When I first had mines I was throwing up and thought I was dying while my mom was just excited, "you got your first period!". I didn't know what a period was, I literally thought I was dying.
So due to that, everytime it's my time I'm always in such severe pain to the point I just throw up. Sometimes I have to force myself to eat in order to throw up to get relief. Painkillers don't work since I just throw that up. I do try drinking tea but that comes back out as well Orz. I think the only thing that works would be very hot bubble baths but sometimes I still feel like I'm dying lol. There's also been a imbalance with my cycle since I workout(gaining and losing weight can cause shifts?) so I'm never sure when it's coming on. There's also times when I skip my period? I'm not active in my sex life so I get scared in why this happens. If anyone knows feel free to tell me if you share a similar experience.

I got my period when I was 11. I had a lot of problems with my period during my first few years, because it was so irregular and so heavy. I would get two, sometimes three, extremely heavy periods a month. Things were so bad I couldn't leave my house during this time, and I would even have to miss entire weeks of school. My doctor was very concerned about my health so she put me on medication to stop my periods. Now I only get them four times a year and they're very light. I have to wear pads because I have vaginismus.
jeez. did you ever talk to a doctor about it? it sounds pretty severe.

I got my first period when I was ten or eleven, I remember I was at a summer day camp and we were at a park and I first noticed as I was going down the slide. I've always had really awful cramps to the point where I'd miss a few days of school each month because of them, so I went on the pill sometime last year and it's helped so much! I don't think I'll ever wanna get off of it.
I have. She told me she was going to do some checkins to see if it isn't something threatening so she prescribe me go some medicine but I still throw that up as well.
you might want to see a doctor about that
