 menstruation experiences 37
|
how old were you when you first got your period, what was it like, and what did you know about what to expect?
|
|
umm...I was in 7th grade. I didn't feel a thing.
|
how did you feel about it, and who did you tell about it?
|
|
I didn't like it that much. I could deal with it pretty good. I told my mom first and she told my dad and i'm pretty sure everyone knows by now
|
what menstrual product did you start with? how did you learn about it?
|
|
I started with a pad and actually just used a pad for a loooooong time. My mom had gotten like a lifetime supply of pads from someone so i had no problem finding one.
|
are you still using the same method to deal with the blood; what methods have you tried; which do you prefer and why?
|
|
i use tampons and a pantyliner for backup sometimes. I DESPISE pads. I feel like i'm wearing a diaper.
|
do you experience cramps, bloating, soar breasts, get pimples...? - if you do, tell us about it, and also, what remedies do you use?
|
|
ALL OF THE ABOVE! It is horrible. I get EXTREMLY sore breast, cramps that get me to my knees, a few pimples, a lot of bloating, and i'm really emotional.
|
do you feel emotional changes relating to where you are in your menstrual cycle?
|
|
Definately. I cry over anything.
|
how do the men in your life relate to your period, or periods in general?
|
|
my boyfriend loves to aggravate me in these "wonderful" days. Everyone can tell when i'm on it because i'm a real bitch so his dad loves aggravating me also.
|
this conversation makes me think....
|
|
Never realized how bad this stuff is.
