What I wish someone told me about my period 🩸

Tracking your period backfires if your period isn’t regular to begin with. 😅. I’ve had mine for almost three years and it still hasn’t regulated.

[maggieplummer]

Couple other tips:
If you do bleed through, get to hot water and bar soap as fast as possible. You can remove all to most of the stain if it is still wet this way. Then just pretreat like you would other laundry. Cotton materials do better than synthetics or silks.
Also if you get cramps and aren't near pain relief, any milk product, I like milk shakes, can provide temporary relief.
Always keep a pad or tampon in your purse, just in case.
Extra long night time pads are not just for night.

My friend has had their period since the fourth grade like omg

If you don’t wanna track/are bad at it you can also just memorize how your body feels leading up to it. My chest always gets really sore for a few days before so Ik when that happens I’m about to get mine. I did that instead of tracking mine because I always sucked at remembering to end it in an app and it would give me anxiety because once it said I was about to/should have started I’d constantly think that I had just started mine when I hadn’t.

I've had mine for like 6 years and I've never thought of the food thing. Might do that sense I always hate having my period. I would have to pick cosmic brownies tho. They're tasty but I can't eat to many in one sitting

I'm on holiday at the moment, and currently sleeping on white sheets on my period 😅. It's stressful

Also if you have bad cramps avoid caffeine and eat DARK CHOCOLATE! Idk why but oh my god it’s a lifesaver for me. Especially the dark chocolate!

As a 10 year old on my period with the lower back pain right now, I will definitely be doing that

[spilosomavirginica]

Oooh I track it and I know when it’s here because I get stabbed but no pose helps better then fetal 😂 also period panties saved my 😂 I can recommend it to everybody because they’re so comfy 😍

[christaphillips]

So, a legitimate trick to relieve cramps, (and some bloating, in my experience) is to rub one out. The tensing and *release* of all the muscles involved in that kind of resets every down there.

Omg so most of my "friends" started when they were 13-15 I got mine at nine, NINE it was the WORST thing to go through so hearing that you started at 10 made me feel a lot better about this

[chloexsturniolos]
