everytime i get my period i feel so biblical. (red tent, you all should read it) here is the deal:

♥1 my last post was asking about starving to get rid of your period. looking back i realized how stupid that sounds. i'm actually a generally intelligent person. who eats semi-well.

♥2 anyone else like this:

flow-chart
day 1: severe cramps, heavy
day 2: severe cramps in the morning, heavy
day 3: cramps in morning, regular
day 4: no cramps, lighter
day 5: no cramps, light but with clumps.

why do i get clumpy's (ew) at the end?

can i please just rip out my vagina, throw it on the driveway, and run it over with my mommy's car? kthanks!

♥3 are anyones cramps worse in the morning? does anyone take bextra? what's your skin like during your cycle?

loves for all the woman out there who bleed.

I clump on day 3-4. I postulate that it's the last of the lining shedding.

3 are anyones cramps worse in the morning? does anyone take bextra? what's your skin like during your cycle?

My cramps sometimes Wake Me Up in the mornings. Ah 6 AM how I hate thee!

I take bextra for nerve pain in my back which flairs up with my cycle. What do you want to know about bextra?

My skin tends to dry out and clear up during and the week after my cycle - which I've heard is unusual.

But despite all of this I still love my vagina. How many guys do you know can walk around in the kind of pain we do and still function?

blood clots... that's what it does... the longer it hangs around up in there... the more it clots? seems rational... I bet that's what the clumps are... and the red tent was a supah novel. ;)

feel better, girl.

Oh the pre-teen-like period skin! How I loathe thee!

Anyhoo, I don't usually get real bad cramps but when I do, they're in the morning and sometimes after I eat dinner. They tend to feel more like I ate too much, but then they linger WAY longer than a normal eating-pain would and start to feel kinda like they're kicking me from the inside. These usually happen days 1-3 (if at all).

My skin breaks out when I'm ovulating, not when I'm bleeding, so it's usually pretty clear by the time we get down to business. I'm not sure if this is my body trying to make me feel better ("Sure, you might be bleeding like a bastard, you might be in agony, you might hate every living thing but hey, at least your skin is pretty good") or if it's laughing at me ("Hey, your skin actually looks pretty good, you could probably afford to go out without 15 layers of makeup on...but BWAHAHAHAHA, you won't want to, becuase you'll be bleeding like a bastard and curled up in agony.")

Ah, womanhood.

It's not your vagina that is the problem. It's your uterus. I'd rather rip out my uterus, soak it in gasoline, light it on fire, then run over it with my mother's car.

I could always drive over and we could run over our uteruses together.

Hell yeah! The vagina, allegedly, has some good nerve endings in there somewhere (I've never found them, but more intrepid explorers than I swear they're there). The uterus just cramps.
