I really need some period help!?!


Question: I really need some period help!?
Well, I only got my period about a year and a half ago but I'm pretty irregular since i do so much physical activity. Anyway, I'm going to Mexico in 3 day and *of course* I would end up with my period. Is there possibly a way I can lessen it or shorten it, I don't want to have to fuss about that while I'm in Mexico for the first time.

Yes from what I read, it's common and normal for athletes or active people to have irregular periods. I don't think there's really any way to shorten it. Just eat healthily and be active. :)



It's always horrible getting your period before you go on holiday but there's nothing you can do to make it shorter. If you want to join in just wear a tampon - believe me I know it's not idea and it's quite scary but it's better than missing out on all the fun! Make sure the tampon is the right absorbency for your menstrual flow. There are many sites online that will help you to learn how to insert a tampon correctly and also take it out correctly, the main factor is to RELAX.

Don't let Mother Nature make your holiday a chore, enjoy your holiday girl! Have an ace time in Mexico.

no not unless you start taking birth control which would influence your hormones so that you are on a more regular cycle. and if you want to skip your period you just skip the placebo pills and go straight to taking the first weeks pills. but if you are already on your period you are just going to deal sorry i hate when that happens too. why periods come at the most inopportune moments i will never know haha have fun in mexico :)

being a woman



if you wanna go swimming, wear a tampon! It can be scary the first time putting it on but then you'll be okay :]
There's no way to shorten it or anything. Just put up with it! I did when I went on holiday.

Make sure you try to shower everyday and keep clean!



Once you have your period, no you cannot shorten it. You can prevent it occurring in the first place with doubling up birth control pills, but not once bleeding starts.



Sadly, there really isn't a way to lessen or shorten your period. Just make sure you stock up on pads, tampons, and pain killers.



You can shorten it with a couple of alcoholic beverages....

=D true story



use a tampon ok...................
