Is it bad to have your period for 17 days?

It can be bad to have your period for a long time. I used to get my period for 8 days straight. But I visited a Gynecologist(person who specializes in the "under" area or the vagina) and she recommended me to take birth control pills. Some people misunderstand the whole birth control thing. They sometimes think that to take them you have to be sexually active, and that isn't true at all. I started on birth control pills when I was 14 years old and now I'm 16 years old and I'm not sexually active. Birth control pills also have side affects. You can get nausea or headaches from them. So it's good if you experiment with different types of pills. The point of taking them is to shorten your period. My period used to last up to 9 days. And now it's only 6 days :) Make sure to see a doctor if your periods get worse or if your getting blood clots(big chunks of blood).

How is a diaphragm used to prevent pregnancy?

A diaphragm is a silicone or TPE dome that is inserted into the vagina and hooked over the pubic bone so it sits under the cervix in order to stop sperm getting into the cervix.

Squirting would not affect pregnancy.

Is there anything else for a girl on her period to do for her not to leak?

Assuming you mean leak as in NOT swimming.

If the flow (heaviness) is really heavy, you could either wear overnight pads, tampons and pads or 2 pads. You could also wear two pairs of underwear, so if you do start to leak, you'll feel it and have time to save yourself.

It really is up to the woman to decided how she will deal with her period.

Does not eating and exercise make your period start early?

No, if anything the opposite is true.

You only menstruate if you ovulate, and you only ovulate if your body is physically healthy enough to cope with pregnancy - if a woman was to exercise too much or starve herself then the body will try to prevent pregnancy by preventing or delaying ovulation, thus they would either miss a period or experience a late period.

Thus why girls who suffer from eating disorders like anorexia, or professional athletes, often loose their periods and can lose their ability to have children permanently.

Can what you eat affect how heavy your menstrual cycle is?

Yes, and surprisingly enough, the more food and the more healthy food you eat on the days leading up to your period, the less heavy it will be. Women with anemia and deficiencies are known to have heavy periods. A good idea if you want a lighter period to take in a lot of calcium, magnesium, and iron in the week before your period.
