I'm sorry but the birth control is the ONLY thing that'll make your periods lighter. Why can't you take the pill yet? Is it your parents? I'd tell your Mom that you have been having bad cramps and heavy flows and have heard that the pill helps tremendously. Just because you are taking the pill, does not mean you want to become sexually active! However, if you do decide to have sex, you MUST also use a condom but you are WAY TOO YOUNG to have sex so please don't. The pill also helps with acne. It really is helpful. And it regulates your period. When I was on it, I knew exactly what day I would start and would always start within the same few hours every time! In the meantime, if you can't go on the pill, make sure that you use pads and tampons for heavy flows to avoid accidents. GOOD LUCK!
You're freakin' 13 for Pete's sake! I know it sucks, I had the same thing, too. Over the next few monthes it'll change. It all depends on your body, and since you probably just started, your body is going through a lot of changes. Talk to your mother and doctor about it if you'd like. But for Pete's sake DO NOT TAKE ANY PILLS!
I know someone with a VERY heavy period. If you're old enough, you might talk to your doctor about going on birth control pills. They lighten and regulate your period significantly.
correction: you are too young. grin and bear it for a while, your body will adjust. Sorry honey!
Exercise more and it will make it lighter. Granted, sometimes it is unstoppable. That's when I call it the red menace ... or the panty apocalypse.
Have your parent take you to a gynecologist. Sometimes heavy bleeding can be due to other issues.
or...
Do not take Ibuprofen it dissolve clots causing you to also have heavy bleeding.
Exercise. Drink water a lot to shoo away cramps.
Let me tell you... My very first period ever was over ten days long and I soaked though every single pad I put in within a few minutes. I know how you feel. =)
Hang in there hun. Being a girl sucks.
OH! And I laughed soooo hard on the "panty apocolypse" comment above.
thers nothing you can take apart from the pill but you preiod will get lighter from self
yeah it starts heavy when youre younger; it did for me and everyone i know. im 16 and its a lot lighter now and some months it skips
