This is a question about peroids... I wound't recomend it for boys!!? |
Issue Ok well I am in 7th grade. I got my period last year. Sometimes I feel stupid because none of my friends even have it yet. And when there are like pad commericals they always make some type of joke and I feel really stupid. How should I deal with that?? Also I get killer cramps any suggestions?! Are they any really good pads to stop leaks?? I really need help with these answers thanks a bunch! Best Tip To me, pads always seemed kind of messy. I don't know if you're ready, or if your mom would be willing to let you, try tampons or a menstrual cup any time soon. (On a personal note: My period started in 6th grade and I pads until 8th grade, when I first started using tampons. At the age of 20, sophomore in college, I switched to the keeper {http://www.keeper.com/}, which is a menstrual cup.) Your friends will be getting theirs soon enough. They may just be a jealous that you're a "woman" and they're not. As for the cramps, midol has always worked for me, but I've never had bad cramps. Source(s): * Page 5 of scaleteen's "On the Rag" articles deals with different types of menstrual products: http://www.scarleteen.com/body/ontherag_... Oh ... and here's page one if you wanted to start from the beginning: http://www.scarleteen.com/body/ontherag.... You may want to read the whole thing, it may be useful to other aspects of your question. * Here's a good place to start if you are interested in alternative menstrual products: http://www.youngwomenshealth.org/alterna... Others when your friends make fun of the commercials, just ignore them. when i would get cramps i would take midol and use a heating pad on my stomach. i dont know if it will help you but it always worked for me. as far as pads go, im not sure because i use tampons. hope this answers a couple of questions. well about the friends part don't know what to tell you. but for cramps try taking midol, or some other pain killers. also a warm bath can help. and try always ultra or something to stop leaks. dont worry i bet you your friends have there period they just didnt tell you and there makin fun of the commercials cuz they dont wana make it seem like they have it. when you get cramps put an ice pack below your stomach and theres a medicine called midole that helps with cramps also. i get HORRIBLE cramps on the frst day of mine. if you ask me, (which you already did) FIND NEW FRIENDS! they sound really really stupid to me. you shoundn't feel stupid cause you got it before them. you should feel proud cause your maturing faster than them. ignore your lame friends okay. all the pads that aren't TOO CHEAP stop leakage to be honest with you. the cheap ones aren't good AT ALL. p.s. give your friends a good piece of your mind! a GOOD piece! You are growing up faster than your friends, When I got my first period I was really embarrassed too, But then my aunt talked to me about how she doesn't get hers but she can't have kids either, so I should feel blessed to have it! |
