Menstruation

It could very well mean that you are pregnant. Your symptoms of pregnancy will usually appear anywhere from the first week of your expected period to 1-2 weeks after your first week of expected period. Your first signs of pregnancy most commonly include missed period, tender/swollen breasts, change in color of the breasts, fatigue, nausea/vomiting, increased sense of smell, and weight gain. Here is a link to a website that will calculate the probability of your pregnancy: http://www.thepregnancytest.com/

Most commonly pain when inserting or removing tampons is due to lack of relaxation - if you're tense your vaginal muscles tense causing the vagina to tense-up so inserting anything or pulling anything out is going to be more difficult. If you're using too high an absorbency this may be an issue too, tampons dry-out vaginal tissues causing tearing so if using too high an absorbency or inserting one tampon after another without using pads occasionally is going to increase damage. If using rayon tampons vaginal dryness can be worse, also you may be allergic to ingredients in these tampons.

You can use whichever work best for you. Try out one different ones and see which ones you prefer. If you're worried about the pad falling off, maybe you'd prefer pads with wings. The wings are sticky part of the pad that you kind of wrap around the outside of your knickers to make it more firmly in place. Or maybe you'd find the wings annoying so you'd prefer pads without wings. You might want longer pads or shorter pads, generally depending on your own size and whether you're sitting, lying down or standing.

It's important to get the right absorbancy pads for you. If your period is heavy, buy some pads that are for heavier periods. If your period is light, buy some pads that are for lighter periods. Most women find that for the first couple of days they need heavier absorbancy pads and for the last few days they need lighter ones, eventually having panty liners for the final day or two. The absorbancy will be shows (normally by droplets) on the outside of the packet.

Also, the more expensive pads aren't always necessarily better than the cheaper, store brand ones, so choose some store brand and some branded to try.

So basically, just try out some different ones and see which you prefer. A lot of pad companies do free samples which you can get via their websites.

As every woman's body and menstrual cycle is different, there is no straightforward answer to this question. In most cases, if your period is stopping and then starting again in the middle of a period, then this is likely to be associated with factors such as stress or a hormonal imbalance so it is totally normal it happens to me all the time.

Yes, you can. Take a pregnancy test if you miss your period.
Technically, you can become pregnant almost any day you have intercourse. The only 100% chance of working birth control is abstinence. Remember, sperm can stay and live in the woman's uterus for up to 5 days, and the egg may be fertilized from 1-2 days after your period until 1-2 days before your period. Therefore, you could possibly become pregnant. The chances of that happening are slim, but it could still happen. I would predict about a 5-10% chance of that happening.
Yes, you can. Take a pregnancy test if you miss your period.

Yes, any penetration of the vagina can tear or break the hymen, depending on the hymen's shape and thickness. Sometimes strenuous sports can break it. A finger, a tampon, a sex toy, or a penis might break it. However, some hymens are simply too thick to break or substantially stretch without a great deal of effort and pain, in which case you may want to consider a hymenotomy (incision which widens the opening) or a hymenectomy (complete removal of the hymen).
No it's too small. But if you do some hard fiscal activity then yes it's possible.
Yes,it can break your hyman and you will know when it happens many other things can break it aswell.

Menstruation does not happen because of the food that you eat as it is a natural bodily function which occurs every twentyeight days or thereabouts for women only another word for menstruation is your period.

If you will notice, there are two parts to a tampon., A small skinny part and the wider part that holds the absorbant material. Place your fingers on the wider part that houses the aborbant matieral, insert the applicator all the way until you feel your fingers touch your vagina. Then push the skinny part up and remove the applicator. The applicator is that size so that the tampon can go in far enough without you having to use a ruler(!)

between the ages of 8-14 years of age, when you get it is once a month, about 1 week every month.

when a women or girl starts her menstrual cycle or "period" it means that she is able to get pregant. if a women never gets her period she will NEVER be able to have a child. so if you want a child then you want to get a period. but it comes with really ad side affects. before you get it you get cramps, you sometimes get moody, you get migranes or headaches.

The average length of the menstrual cycle is 28 days - however this can vary greatly between different people, some people can have shorter cycles and some can have longer cycles. It is also normal for there to be around a weeks variation from one cycle to the next.

You can't get your period faster than when it is due. Menstruation is part of your menstrual cycle, a domino effect of hormonal changes that cannot be sped-up, nor can you skip phases of your menstrual cycle to force your period to start before it's due.

It truely actually is really normal so just come down and relax drink a lot of water and milk so you won't be frustrated and mad and grumpy the reason I know this is because my mom told me and I'm going through this now and it really lame

its quite embarrassing, but you should just tell him. or next time you go to the store pick some up . Just tell him. He will definitely understand. Believe it or not, your dad is familiar with menstrual cycles and will totally understand that you need tampons. He might be a little reluctant to purchase them for you, but he should be understanding to take you to the store and to purchase them. Make sure that you purchase extra tampons for future use, this will alleviate this issue next month.

Most birth controls have "active" pills which contain the actual hormones that prevent pregnancy, they are a different color from the "sugar" pills which dont have any hormones in them at all. You start with the active pills and they last through your cycle, then when you have taken the last active pill you begin taking the sugar pills which there are usually about 7 of them. During the time that you are taking those sugar pills it is normal to get your period, that is actually what is supposed to happen anyway. Now if you were to get your period during the active pills, then you need to think if maybe you missed a pill somewhere. Some birth controls can make you have some bleeding if you miss one or more. This is no cause of alarm, just a nice little reminder to no miss them, or that is what will happen. If you are concerned, then dont hesistate to give you local family planning clinic or your health care provider whom prescribed you the pills and ask them any questions you may have. They will be happy to give you any information you need.

Although Ms has been in use since the 1700s as an abbreviation for Mistress, its modern use is meant to avoid the practice of denoting a woman's martial status by assigning her the title of Miss or Mrs. Some say that Ms should have a period as Mr. does (in American usage anyway). This violates the modern spirit of the title by once again tying it to the masculine.

Ms would not take a period in British usage and shouldn't in American usage either.

Into the vaginal opening. It is important to be relaxed and to make sure you push it all the way in. Push towards the lower back.. In the vaginal hole below the urethra which is where urine comes out of. You should read the directions that come witht he box of tampons. It is helpful. Also, make sure you insert it all the way because if you dont, it will be uncomfortable. Try doing it with one leg up on the toilet. Put it in the whole underneath your legs, gosh. IS IT THAT HARD???? Just dont stick it up your butt hole that would be a bit uncomfertable. I am surprised that sooooo many people asked this question.

You don't acutally menstruate. Its a discharge that starts out as a heavy bleeding and lessens and changes color as the next couple weeks go on. It will eventually go from red, to brownish, to brown, to light brown, to yellowish, to white and then stop. Unfortunately right around the time it stops, you will probably get your first "real" period post-birth

I HOPE YOU ARE NOT ON THE SHOT! I BLED FOR 6 MONTHS ON THE SHOT, AND A FRIEND OF MINE DID THE SAME THING
BUT
THE HORMONE IN THE BIRTH CONTROL COULD EITHER BE TO HIGH OR NOT HIGH ENOUGH

The first menstrual cycle is marked by the womans for menstrual phase or period, this is known as menarche. Menarche on average occurs at the age of 13, but anything from 10-16 years old is normal.

This is most likely caused by irregular periods or a hormonal imbalance. If the bleeding was heavy flow then see your doctor as you may need birth control pills to regulate your period if this occurs again. Nothing to worry about but do see your doctor. It can also be due to your age, if you are young and just starting to have periods it can take some women several years before their periods become regular. It may or may not be anything serious.
