Jul. 3rd, 2003 02:48 amso yeah i`m growing to really hate my body.
i just had my period earlier this month..i guess it ended around the 13th. and now, it came again on the 28th. it does this alot...so its like i'm having 2 every month...one in the beginning/middle then another in the VERY last week of the month...sometimes itll be like the first of the next month but this month there was barely even 2 weeks between them.
i started my period when i was in 6th grade....i never had real bad cramps, occasionaly i'd get them..usually just moderate pain and moderate bleeding i could deal with.
i got sexually active i guess near to a year ago...and ever since then i think things have gotten worse. i kno that makes your horomones change and can do all kinds of things to your body....but im getting worried. ive become real irregular, sometimes periods every 2 weeks....sometimes normal.
i get bad cramps. worse than ever before, to the point of crying & lying in bed. aleve, midol, tylenol..nothing cuts it. unless its coedine/tylenol 3, which my sis has a prescription for from her former surgery so sometimes i take that.
the blood...its heavy. i started using tampons like 6 months ago, cause i always felt wet and gross, and they felt cleaner to me. but thats just a random fact. really heavy bleeding...well atleast compare to what i used to have.
also, random times of the month not even near my period..i get bad lower abdomen cramps, for no real reason. and theres been a few times i've noticed spotting/irregular bleeding..but i always blamed it on stress or excess exercise or something like that.
also, i notice around my period and some other times, the lower part of my abdomen where the uterus/ovaries are gets hard..
i have a lot of discharge sometimes too. its usually just white and sticky, for no reason. not aroused, not thinking sexual. and sometimes my stomach will cramp up real bad...and then theres discharge.
i really think something is wrong with my body, and im going to talk to mum and go to a gyno as soon as this periods over, but can anyone give me any clues as to what it is? quite frank...i`m scared. scared there's something seriously wrong with me. even if there is i kno i have to face it eventually and deal with it..but now im looking for some kind of comments/suggestions/reassurance on any possbile causes or solutions to it all?

Jul. 3rd, 2003 12:58 pmit seems i've been playing hide and go seek with my period, though i've added a element of Russian Roulette to the mix. i'm wearing really good and sexxy underwear, with no pantiliner or pad.
doesn't that just scream for my period to show up???
..but of course, no sign yet.
i have an IUD,i'm stressed beyond belief, what else could this be??

Jul. 3rd, 2003 03:54 pmThis is a strange question, but I'm wondering if anyone knows if it's ok to have sex while you have a urinary tract infection.
thanks.

i've never posted here before, i just joined. i keep an eye on vaginapagina, but i thought this would be a better place for this question.
over my past couple of cycles, my menstrual cramps have gotten progressively more painful. my period started today, with me waking up with insane cramps, and they've gotten worse as the day has gone on. i tried taking a warm bath, applying a playtex heat therapy pad, and massaging my lower abdomen, but nothing's helped. i can't go to the doctor right now, as i have no insurance, and to tell you the truth, i'm not really interested in taking medication. i'm kind of anti-all drugs, even prescription drugs. but i've got to do something, because lying in bed and whimpering doesn't really make me feel any better.
so my question is, does anyone have any natural remedies they've found helpful for really bad cramps?
thank you in advance.

Jul. 3rd, 2003 05:00 pmhi i'm new here and have a kind of quirky question.
does anyone know when a good time to change your tampon is? i read the instructions in the box and it says every 6-8 hours, but sometimes before that time, i'll start "leaking" so i go to change the tampon anyway. then there are other times where it's going on ways past 8 hours and there's no leakage. but regardless of when i take the tampon out, it sort of still looks the same--streaked with blood (not soaked, like i expect it to be). am i doing something wrong? how can i tell when it's time for a change?

Jul. 3rd, 2003 10:24 pmi don't know if this is really the place to ask this question as its semi-off topic, but since it's a female community, i thought i'd give it a shot.
i used to shave with a lady bic -- one of those cheap plastic ones. i'd use just plain soap and water while i was in the shower and come out with about 8 nicks total. but about two months ago, i switched to one of those venus razors. a friend suggested it because the hair on my legs is incredibly coarse, and i have pretty long stubble by the end of the day. so, i started using it, and it worked really well. i dont cut myself at all. but, my right calf suddenly became littered with ingrown hairs. and just my right calf. so far, i've been putting aloe vera gel on them, but they just won't go away. does this happen to anyone else? if so, what other ways can i prevent/treat them?
<3.
