Whats going on with me?!!?!


Question: Whats going on with me?!!?
Ok so im 15, ive never had my period before and i went to the bathroom to pee and when i wiped the toliet paper was almost drenched in this light redish stuff and it had some dark brown almost black spots that were almost kinda gooey. And i didnt bleed on my underwear or anything, and like my lower stomach really hurts almost like cramps. And i put a pad in but after an hour theres no blood on it, am i going to be okay? Whats going on?!?!?

Answers:

It sounds like you just had your first period. Congratulations!

Not everyone's period is the same. Some people have a light pink discharge, others have a bright red discharge that is obviously blood, and others yet again pass a lot of dark clots.

As for why there is no blood on your pad, when you pee, you are using a lot of muscles in your pelvic region, and this in some people forces some bloody discharge out. You have no blood on your pad because your discharge is very light. This may chance over time, and you might find you end up with a darker red and heavier discharge.

I suggest you circle today's date on a calendar, and circle every single day you are bleeding. Do the same next time you have your period. Over time, you will see a pattern develop about when your period is next due, so you can be prepared.

Also, bear in mind, that for the first little while your periods may be very irregular whilst your body settles into a pattern.

That's your period babe. Ask your mom about tampons - I know that I have to use tampons on my period takes forever. That gooey stuff with dark spots is normal - dark spots signify older period blood. Sometimes your body might take a while to work through it, especially at the start of your period. Best of luck!



Is this your first period? Everyone is different and no period is the same. If it is the first one you have ever had it is probably because of that. I don't think anything is wrong with you. Just give it time to work its way out! lol. And nothing is wrong with getting it at 15. Everyone is different!



sounds like you've got your period.
weird about the pad not having blood on it, but give it time!
