Hi peoples!

So I know a few ladies that have joined the site and I decided to poke around and join myself. I'm a patch user to regulate my rediculously long heavy periods. And even still I have to take 600 mg of ibuprofen every four hours for cramps *sigh*. But lately I've been getting a discharge in between periods that's like clear mucus but has darkish brown strands through it. I used to get it at the very end of my period, but it hasn't stopped since my last period and I'm set to get my next one sometime this upcoming week. Has this happened to anyone else? I don't know whether to be worried or just chalk it up to jobsearching stress. Any advice??

Question about heating pads

Does anyone know if those adhesive heat pads are natural rubber latex-free?

Pill and boob pain?

[alonewithme.livejournal.com]

Hi, I've written in here before about my starting birth control. Well, I've been on it a little less than a month. My boobs normally hurt a few days before I get my period, but now they really hurt. More so than usual. I guess I was just wondering if anyone else has sore boobs before their periods, or if they've noticed an increase in the pain (not a huge one, per se, just enough to be more of an annoyance) because of birth control.

The next thing I want to say isn't a question, just a mini-rant of sorts. I thought that taking a pill about the same time everyday would be easy, and difficult to forget. Yet, it still manages to slip my mind every now and again. Rarrrr.

Tri-Sprintec

So, is anyone on Tri Sprintec? My wonderful insurance company decided to switch me to a cheaper generic pill. [ /sarcasm ]

Frustrated

Hey, I'm new. My name is Emily. I have a question for everyone...so please help me...

This will probably sound stupid, but I have to ask. I have my period in the middle of the month (between the 14-16). This would be fine, except that my spring break is March 15-21. I had planned on visiting my boyfriend during that time, but I'll be on my period. No sex. It's a long distance relationship, and already I have sexual frustration from never being able to be intimate with him.

What I want to know is, is there a clean way to have sex during your period? Or is there a way to stop your period? My cousin said something about using a douche, but I don't know much about them. Any advice or help you could give me would be greatly appreciated.
