I need Information about Peirods? ?

Question

I'm 15. I've had my peirod for quite some time now, but I don't really understand what's going on down there. I know this sounds crazy, but I guess it's better to ask then not, right? Here are some questions I have. God Bless!

1) Cramping, what exactly is it?

2) What makes your flow heavy or light?

3) What is a peirod? Why do you have it.

4) Is this normal:My peiord goes on for about 6 days. I cramp the first day, the third day, stop the fourth day for about ten to twelve hours, then start up again, but then cramp like it's my first day.

5) Is THIS normal: For my first and fourth day, I bleed so much, I have to change my tampon every 30 minutes for about 13 hours. Not Joking and very serious. I mean, where I HAVE to change it. Where it's already leaking by the time my 30 minutes is up. I use super heavy and all of that. My mom's had to keep me from school sometimes because it's like this.

All of your advice is very much appricated. Thanks a lot and God Bless!

Answer 1

It is totally normal to not understand!

Okay here are my answers::

1. Cramping is when blood is being forced out of the uterus and it is being "contracted" so you get cramping!

2. Well it demponds on alot of things! It depends on weither your moms flow was heavy or light but it also depends on your size too! like if your tall and thin or if you are....large.

3.We have it so we can give birth..but if you want a technical meaning we have it because Eve took the forbbin fruit off the tree...long story... God gave us the pain of child birth.

4 totally!

5 no. its not. go to your doctor!

Answer 2

ok...

1) it's the muscles of the uterus tightening... this can be extremely painful.

2) depends on the girl, just how much tissue is made, everyone's unique.

3) a menstrual period is a 28 -usually- day cycle of fertility, the tissue collects, the egg goes from the ovaries to the fallopian tube, gettting ready to be pregnant, when the egg isn't fertalized, the blood flows out through the v****a, then is a full cycle.

4) completely. everyone's experience is different, and it sounds fine.

5) fairly normal i think... you might want to check it out with a doctor if you're worried because you might have something called menorrhagia.\

Answer 3

1. Its pains in your stomach, connected with your periods. It feels a bit like a stitch

2. Your DNA

3. The lining of your womb with the egg coming out because it is not needed

4. Perfectly normal, i have the same

5. You just have a heavy period. Its alright, your just unlucky babe!

Answer 4

I think you should ask your mom about this sort of thing but all the cramping is, is your uterus where the baby would be stored if you had one contracts to shed the uterine lining. Having a period is the female body's way of shedding the egg that was not fertilized along with the uterine lining that built up in case of possible pregnancy. The heavy and light thing it just depends on your body everybody is different. Its perfectly normal to bleed that much but if you are concerned go see a gyno and ask about birth control because that helps lighten your period and cause less cramping.

Answer 5

It is difficult to provie short answers to your questions but I will try

1). during periods some volume of blood is appearing in the uterus which is provoking uterus contractions which is painful

2). internal line of the uterus can be thin or thick depending on hormones. Thin is ending with light menstruation and thick is ending with heavy menstruation

3). Every month if woman is not pregnant the internal line of the uterus is "refreshing itself"

4).For your age it is OK but later it will be changed

5).For your age it is OK but later it will be changed

Answer 6

1) Cramping is caused by chemicals in a girls body that causes the muscles in the uterus contract and therefore pushing blood out.

2) In young women and those near menopause heavy bleeding is usually caused by a hormonal imbalance. Light bleeding is caused by a thin endometrial which is the thin mucus membrane lining the uterus which is thickened  by hormones.

3) When an egg is mature is will make its way down through the Fallopian tube and into the uterus. If the egg is fertilized then it will fasten itself to the endometrial. If not then the egg with cause the endometrial to shed.

4) If you are experiencing heavy or irregular periods which are interferring with the quality of your life then you should consult a gynaecologist.
