How do I know if my period is normal and how do I lessen it?!
Question: How do I know if my period is normal and how do I lessen it.?
I use to think I was just really bad at adjusting, because even after two years, I still got it on my pants. I really think now that it's not normal. I have to use the bathroom like four times during school and stick a ton of toilet paper there. If using two pads in a day without toilet paper is normal to my doctor, then my period is not normal. also, recently, I finally cured my anemia (for now) and I think it makes sense to blame it on my period. So...the first part of the question is pretty much answered already. Still, I would like to know how much is normal.
also, how do I lessen my period.? Exercising.? What else.? Anything I can take besides birth control to either lessen the days, or the amount for the week.? I'm only 14, so I don't want to be taking birth control. It's just a slightly uncomfortable thought.Health Question & Answer

sometimes a low dose birth control pill can help with your period. with a normal period you should need to wear only one pad at a time and not need to change it for at least an hour. now it is possible to have heavy periods that is why i said that maybe you need to talk to your doctor about a low dose birth control pill. i am not a doctor so i can't really prescribed anything .i am going by what i had to do when i was still having periods. i recently had to have both my ovaries removed but then i'm 53. when i had my periods i used to have to wear two or three pads at a time and would l soak through them within 20 -30 minutes. for leaking out the sides they make pads with side wings that help a lot. i used to use them, also there are out there pads that have cHealth Question & Answer
its just heavy. this is normal! try tampons, and if they leak you can wear pads too so you wont have much of a problem.
it is normal - loads of girls have heavy periods too, but there arent many ways to lessen it. i agree, dont go on birth control yet. but that is the only effective method.Health Question & Answer
