I started my period in Jan and every time this happens. ?!


Question: I started my period in Jan and every time this happens. ?
I have flu like sypmtoms:
throwing up
diarreah
fever
Then, bloating
sore boobs
HEAVY flows (9-11 super plus tampons a day)
loss of appetite

ALSO, I lose about 4-5 pounds when I am on my period (6-8 days)

What is going on? Is this normal?

And don't tell me to tell my mom because we aren't close so I really can't and I am an only child so don't say to ask an older sibling, please and thank you :)

Answers:

I would go to the doctor. If these aren't sign of something else you at the very least are losing a lot of blood from this abnormally heavy period. Some birth controls can help regulate this and give a more normal period.
Seriously consider talking to your mother about it (I know how awkward and hard it can be. I'm not close with mine either.) and ask her to take you to the doctor. Or go by yourself. My friend has a similar situation and there have been times where she passes out and needs to be taken to the hospital because her period is so heavy.
Good luck with your situation.



Sore breast and heavy flows are normal. Most girls during the adolescent stage especially will experience those two symptoms. As for the Heavy Flows, that is normal if you don't have regular cycles. Your flow will become more lighter as your body becomes use to mestrating.

Some girls that I know have had those same symptoms and have been diagnosed with anemia. You need to go to the doctor or visit someone that you can talk to. Research some free clinics that you can go to.



Yeah definitely talk to your school nurse or get to a dr. I don't care how close you are or not to your mother. If she is a mother she will take you to a Dr. Sounds like your period needs to be regulated with medicine or other medical problems need to be addressed. This is not normal.



Hey Katie,
