I'm worried - Period help?!?!


Question: I'm worried - Period help?!?
My period started on Monday, for the first ever time.
Today I've changed my pad 4/5 times because it's been soaked, I'm really heavily bleeding.
My mum thinks this is abnormal because when she started it was very light.
Is my heavy bleeding abnormal? Please someone help me? I'm terrified!

Answers:

my periods were very heavy from the start (which was awful cause i was at school camp) as long as your not soaking a pad every hour its ok

Normal. It doesn't have to be identical to your mum's experience. If I were you I'd train myself into Tampon use, it is so much more convenient, hygienic and economical and way less trouble than pads. Get used to inserting them (it may seem scary at first, but it really is easy once you're used to it) and then just change them every few hours when you are heavy like this. Best wishes. :)



Nahh, It's fine. The first one is normally heavy. Just relax. maybe you should wear 2 pads( one at the front one at the back)
