Ug! Horrid Period!?!


Question: Ok well my period has been going on for two days and is really heavy, I don't get cramps, but I just feel gloomy, and it is early by a week! My period hasn't been early ever! I was regular since I started! Anyway I can lighten my period, any foods that will help? Medications?

Don't take medication for it, or anything that will really effect it. A girl died from taking birth control that shortened her period, the blood got backed up, and she got blood clots all throughout her brain and died, true story. Just deal with it, we all have to. I doubt it's worse than mine, and I'm only 13 (got my period before I was 10). The women in my family have the stupidest hormones on earth, and like to take every symptom
of a period and push it to the max. It's just something we all have to go through, and it's nature. Don't mess with nature, it isn't right in interfere with it. Let your body take it's course.

Hope I could be of some help. Good luck. :)
Btw, if you took anything in that answer offensively, it wasn't intended to be.

i heard yogurt is supposed to lighten it.. but how long is ur period usually? mine is lik 5-6 days and its really heavy for 2 days n after that its pretty light...
so maybe ur heavyness is done?

Sorry. :( Just have to let mother nature take it's course. Hope you feel better.

Get birth control..Lo Estrin 24. Shorter and lighter periods.
Usually if you take that your period is only 3 days long.

there is nothing you can really do about it. my periods were always a little irregular. but a recent period i had lasted for 5 whole weeks and was extremely heavy the whole time. i'm 15 and i've had mine since i was about 13. i went to the gyn and she checked it out and gave me birth control. there is nothing to do to really lighten it. make sure you do not over excersize, or take aspirin. it will make it heavier. if it lasts longer than a week or 2 go to your gyn, they will know what to do. i guess i waited a little long. good luck! :)
