Heavy period question?!
Question: Heavy period question.?
So, I've had my period since I was 11 and I'm 17 now. I started my cycle yesterday. I usually wear super and super plus on those heavier days, but today was different. I put in a super plus tampon and about an hour and a half later, it was completely full and leaking onto a pad I was wearing. Is this normal.? Usually i have them in for about 3 or 4 hours before i have to change it. It just kind of freaked me out, I guess, since I've had it for 6 years now, and this has never once happened.
Would birth control help this at all.? I've been thinking seriously about going on the pill to help with a heavy period, cramps, acne, and of course, to prevent pregnancy.?Health Question & Answer
