Menstruation

They include medroxyprogesterone (Provera, Amen, Depo-Provera ), norethindrone acetate (Aygestin, Norlutate), and norgestrel (Ovrel).

Women may want to make sure they are taking an iron supplement to replace the iron lost during the heavy bleeding, although they should check with their doctor to make sure they do not suffer from a condition of having too much iron.

I have the same issue. According to this page, it's time to visit the doctor. http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/preconception/110634/2

Yes, Fruta Planta has ingredients that are known to cause unusual bleeding and menstrual pain.

Fruta Planta has been recalled by the FDA. It contained unmarked ingredients that had been previously banned in the United States. There have been cardiac events and death reported with this supplement. The FDA has advised to stop taking it right away. See the related question for more information and links.

well it is your period and use a tampon or pad when starts starts between ages 9-17

You can't make menstruation come.

When you menstruate is determined by your menstrual cycle, a domino affect of hormonal changes between your brain and reproductive organs. You cannot speed-up your cycle or skip phases of your cycles in order to make yourself menstruate sooner than you're due to menstruate.

Menstruating is when a woman goes through her menstrual cycle. Which means she has her monthly period.

the answer is no because if ur 10 like me u cant be pergnate so bye

Ok Ignore what the 10 year old said since a 10 year old who is having periods can get pregnant if they're stupid enough to be having sex at that age! If you're having periods but don't understand what they're for then I'm guessing you are too young to be having sex, also if you did get pregnant no you're "late" period wont come until you've had your baby.

No, your period doesn't stop in water - this is a common myth. Menstruation can sometimes appear to stop in water because when light what little blood leaves your body is diluted by the water, but it doesn't stop and heavier flow will be noticed. If you want to go in the bath you can do so at any time, but if wanting to go in the water to swim you need to use internal menstrual products such as tampons, softcups, diaphragms, or menstrual cups.

no

It's very rare to get toxic shock syndrome, but you increase your likelihood of getting it by leaving in your tampons for over 8 hours. Just make sure you're taking them out every 8 hours and you shouldn't have a problem.

Why do i get red all over when i have a hotflash

A tampon should not be slipping out - if used correctly the tampon should sit above the narroest part of the vaginal canal, both this and vaginal muscle tone will keep the tampon in place - if tampons are slipping out you need to discuss this with your doctor.

If tampons dont work for you then you should consider using pads or other similar external options like period underwear, belts or interlabial pads, you may also still be able to use internal options like sponges, soft tampons, softcups or menstrual cups.

Possibly you are not having two periods, but rather you have a disease which gives symptoms which immitate the natural effects of menstruation - the one I think of is ovarian cancer. Definitely see a cancer doctor if you haven't already.

Tampons should be inserted as far as you can reach, you shouldn't feel them once inserted correctly. If the flow is going past the tampon it may be the shape of your vagina or the cervix may sit lower than the tampon - the tampon may go to the side of the cervix, rather than under it to catch flow. Try different types of tampons like soft tampons, or use options like menstrual cups, softcups, or pads instead.

It probably seems like menstruation would be a big pain for other primates, right? If you're reading this post and you're a woman, chances are you've had to deal with "Aunt Flow" since your junior high days or even earlier, month after tiresome month, so it makes sense that you'd want to know just how other animals, including our non-human primate cousins cope. After all, it's not like they can just run on down to the pharmacy for supplies. But the thing to remember is that in the past, and even in some other 'natural fertility' groups today, women would typically get married at a much earlier age and spend most of their adult lives either pregnant or breastfeeding, both of which cause what's known as "secondary amenorrhea" (no periods), so they would actually have way fewer periods over the course of their lifetime than we experience. It's the same for other primates (monkeys, apes, lemurs etc.). When a female primate ovulates, odds are she'll also mate with one or more males and become pregnant. Think about it - it's not like non-human primates (in the wild) have access to birth control. And, like I mentioned above, the entire time a primate is pregnant and lactating she also is not menstruating since both are metabolically draining on the mother. Infant primates aren't fed jars of mushy baby food or given bottle formula, either, so they pretty much have to rely on mom's milk until they can possibly begin to find food on their own -- especially since food sharing is pretty darn rare in other animals. All of this means that primate babies end up nursing for what would seem to us like a really long period of time. By the time a baby primate is weaning and its mum can ovulate and mate again, odds are she'll also have a line of eager males waiting in the wings to start the whole cycle over again, thus preventing menstruation. When implantation does not occur in a given cycle(recall that the length of a female's cycle varies both between species and also within the members of a given species), however, then the endometrial tissue might be reabsorbed (so there's no external bleeding) or shed (see Strassman, 1996), although few mammals have as much menstrual bleeding as humans. So, as you can see menstruation is not something that would pose a huge problem for most non-human primates because it would be a relatively rare event. Finally, the fact that women in developed countries today menstruate so much is, as you can see, certainly not the "ancestral" pattern, and has been linked to a rise in many types of reproductive cancers.

PREGNANCY???

Spotting and Cramping are two of the most common early signs of pregnancy, also look out for tiredness, frequent head aches and the obvious one...morning sickness, i would say your next step is to see a pharmacist for a pregnancy test and then book in to your doctor/midwife (depending on the result ofcourse), Good Luck! :)

Understand the seriousness or allright-ness of 2 weeks depends on several factors such as Flow> _ heavy / light? Your age> _ 20s _30s ...

Recent > _Illnes _change in diet/water source >_Vigorous from couch potato or vise-versa? >_ Vigorous U-know-what with U-know-who?

As U contemplate the last , think about WebMD or another "symtoms"checker-type site, start with, "A nswers Dcom / "AskDcom" *Don't wait, do it now, or I'm calling you-know-who! m4)

Don't use tampons while you are getting that white goo, just let it go on your pants then wash them. Or put a pantyliner in so it doesn't make a mess, but you don't need a tampon for those. Tampons only need to be changed every six or seven hours, if it's utterly soaked before then, use a higher absorbency. (So, if you're using lites or small, go up to normal, if you're using super, or large, go to super plus or extra large.) Also .. if it's clotty that means you're wiping your vagina too much. This could lead to medical problems. So DON'T over wipe your vagina.

When you start having cramp like symptoms but earlier then when your cycle is going to start this is usually an early symtom sign of being pregnant.

By using an ovulation predictor test, by watching for changes in cervical mucus (becomes thin and stretchy, less sticky - resembles uncooked egg whites) by changes in the position of the cervix (drops, opens slightly) and by a slight rise in your temperature - taken as soon as you wake up, before getting out of bed - should be tracked every morning to be accurate.

Most women ovulate anywhere between Day 11 - Day 21 of their cycle, counting from the day they start their period (called day 1).
