  • Periods. Period.Latest reply: July 21, 2012, 9:14 a.m. by

    I hate my period! Okay, I'm guessing everyone does. Mine lasts like 6-7 days and i got it not too long ago. I heard it only gets worse with time. I'm waaaaaaaaaaaaay to scared to use tampons, I wont swim that week during summer....but I just feel soooo icky! I have to wear a uniform to my Catholic school and I wear a skirt! My friend told me if I wear spandex/biker shorts underneath my skirt it's not noticeable. But I still notice it! I don't get cramps or anything like that..I just feel gross! What can I do without using tampons??

    Well Brianna, I will give you something to laugh at, but could be useful.
    I saw once my mom using the long type of baby diapers... This could be helpful, I am a man, did not experience it, but my wife, uses Tampons and she is ok with it, after delivering two boys, she is used to that, because she has a stream of blood like you as you discribed it. And yeh, it feels Gross,,, I can't think of having sex at that time, and yeh it takes long time, fortunately this is how we were created.... no?? man and women.... women are like that, and positively, it is good to have your blood change every month... I accept its gorss...... good luck and be happy dear.

    ask your doctor to put you on of birth control. it will make your periods lighter, and shorter, therefore much easier to deal with. as for the gross feeling, keep a travel size pack of baby wipes in your bag, you will be amazed at the difference. tampons are the best possible solution to eliminate that gross feeling....something about pads has always just grossed me out. try wearing a thin panty liner with the tampon...you will not be able to see it whatsoever with your spandex, as opposed to a bulky pad that you sit on all day.

    i just had a baby he´s just 3 months old and i have not seen my period in almost 1 yr because of the pregancy and BF i wish it would continue like this,to feel a little better tampons are a little better with pant linner,and then you can change it every time you go to the bathroom.
