Don't be embarrased. It's always good to ask other women or you Obg/yn especially if you think somethings wrong. But, I would recommend getting a calendar and writing down the dates when you do get your period. Also carry some pantiliners/pads/tampons with you if you feel your period coming on. Also you can buy some dark underwear to wear just for your period and soak and handwash them whenever your done with a pair. Hope I could help :-)
you should wear one everyday until your period gets normal
When women live together, their cycles do change until they are on the same cycle. I know this for a fact. It's happened to me more times than I care for. Even if you work in close confines with a bunch of women, you will all adjust until you are all the same. Just be patient, and carry period protection with you. Yea wear a pantie liner.
peace
Your mom is proably right as the mother three teenage girls we have went through this every time one of the girls started. We used panty liners that were made for light use for a while.
It helped but it can be tiresome always having one when you aren't on your period. My girls hated it. I just asked them which would be worse washing out and cleaning their panties and light colored clothing if they didn't have something on or taking the two secs. to put one on.
Assuming you are reasonably healthy, not taking hormones (birth control), or breastfeeding a baby, the time between your ovulation and the start of your next period should be fairly consistent. Most cycle variation is due to variation in the time between the start of your period and ovulation. So if you keep track of when you ovulate for a few cycles you should be able to make a pretty good guess. (I know this doesn't help you this cycle, but for future reference.) You can detect ovulation by taking your temperature each morning (your "basal body temerature") before you get up and recording it. You need a thermometer that is precise enough to show tenths of a degree Fahrenheit. Traditionally these were special thermometers (basal or "BBT" thermometers rather than fever thermometers) that were kept behind the pharmacist's counter, but nowadays some digital fever thermometers are good enough. Ask your pharmacist if you are unsure. A BBT thermometer may be sold with instructions showing how to detect ovulation (you could ask your pharmacist about this, too), but basically what you're looking for is a rise of about 0.4 degrees Fahrenheit or so. (For the Celsius scale it would be 0.2 degrees, and you'd want a thermometer that reads to .05, I guess.) If your temperature stays high for more than a couple days (and you're not sick with a fever) you can be sure you've ovulated. The time from ovulation to the start of your next period should be about fourteen days (say, 10-16) and be the same every month. Also, some women notice that their temperature starts falling to the pre-ovulation level just before their period, so it's worth taking your temperature throughout a couple of cycles to see if you're lucky in that way, and also to establish the habit.
There are a number of things that can affect ovulation. One that comes immediately to mind is light in your bedroom. Some women are able to regulate ovulation by keeping their bedroom very dark for most of their cycle and then putting a light on the floor at the foot of their bed for a few days when they think they should be ovulating. (This simulates the lunar cycle.) Stress can delay ovulation. Poor eating habits can mess up your cycle. Certain medical conditions can be detected much earlier by monitoring your fertility.
Menstruation is the periodic discharge from the vagina during the reproductive age. Normal menstruation consists of blood, secretions, and disintegrating uterus lining, or the womb. Although the interval of a typical menstrual cycle is mentioned as twenty-eight days, the normal duration can be from twenty to thirty days and lasts for about three to seven days. Since it is difficult to measure the amount of blood loss during menstruation, it is estimated by the number of sanitary napkins used per day. Using to five napkins per day is considered normal.
Irregular pattern of menstruation cycle can be seen for a few months after liposuction. A minor change in the menstruation cycle is a common side effect of many such cosmetic surgery procedures. Although there seems to be no correlation of any side effects of cosmetic surgery and use of aesthetics-enhancing products such as mary kay cosmetics but still some patients are finicky enough to keep even the most harmless products like lip balm off unless they get back into their straps fully.
you should wear depends diapers, works for my grandma.
Women don't know it but their periods are actually tied to the ups and downs in the stock market, and not to each others periods
Update: I think Linda B is right now that I think about it. It would explain why all the women in the office act like they are on the rag at the same time, probably because they are.
