Is it normal for this to be happening?

Question

This is the second morning of my period. I have only had it once before, but not this heavy. Yesterday, I went through 8 tampons. And this morning at 11:30, I'm on my third one, and almost 4th! Its very heavy and i'm changing it every 30 minutes-every hour!! I wear a pantyliner in case it starts to leak for back-up. I have dance pictures today and I'm babysitting! Help help help!!

Answer 1

oh hunny it is VERY normal! some months  you will have VERY heavy periods, other months it may be very little. when i have periods like that i wear a tampon and a pad, not just a pantiliner. it'll get lighter prolly in the next day or so. dont fret

Answer 2

as u go on ur periods get heavyer dnt stress ova it

Answer 3

Have you eaten lots of candy? Anything with sugar? Junk food?

Well it makes your period much heavier.

Answer 4

That is not normal. Its not even normal for a heavy flow. 8 tampons is way to many, I have a heavey flow and I go through about 3 a day at the most. But if your concerned that your pregnant *considering this is in the pregnancy sections* your probably not. You dont have a period when your pregnant. But if you are pregnant, that could be the sign of a miscarriage.

Answer 5

Its very normal.

Try a super-plus tampon and a liner.

Answer 6

There is nothing you can really do to stop the flow. Stress levels can affect your period. If you are truly concerned, go see a doctor.
