I guess you could say I love giving advice -
I'm an older sister, a tutor and a psych freak to boot! I always try to be honest and sincere. My school motto was "do unto others as you wish them to do unto you" and I really take that to heart. Any questions I'm capable of answering (love, relationships, general problems, cultural stuff about Thailand, bicultural issues, etc.), I will answer.

okay my boyfriend n i are both virgins....but we do fool around n last night we did and he fingered me n went down on me and that night i noticed i was bleeding a lil which i didnt think much about because i figured he just kinda ripped me cuz i know thats normal well today it was like i had my period but i jus had it not last week but the week b4 that and my periods not like that im 17 yrs old i think i would know. n the botom of the tampon is the only part that gets bloody and the string and its a REALLY dark color blood. N i was wondering if a guy goes down on you n he kinda sucks on you when you orgasm...can that cause you to bleed? Or should i be concerned? (link)

First of all, don't panic. Nine times out of ten, everything is perfectly fine. From what you've said, it sounds as though your boyfriend may have ruptured a few small blood vessels during your interaction. You should seek medical advice for this, because although the damage might be minor, the infections and problems that may follow it may not. If you're embarrassed, don't be. If you're old enough to be engaging in this sort of activity, you're old enough to start taking responsibility for your own help. Ask your boyfriend to take you to an anonymous clinic or go to a hospital you're sure no one will recognize you at. DON'T LEAVE IT ALONE. It worries me that you think that because you're 17, you would "know" about your period. No woman actually "knows" about her period, except maybe an Ob-gyn or other expert. our periods are very variable, and hinge on a number of factors, from food intake, mood, emotional state, anxiety or even medication. the only thing we can claim to "know" is about what time our periods should arrive (but even then, if highly anxious or underfed, we may skip a cycle). darker blood may be due to a number of factors (increased iron intake, perhaps), but if you ever see anything that is strange about your period, never hesitate to consult a health professional. you're lucky if it's nothing and at least you'll learn something. if *is* something, at least you will have caught it in time. better safe than sorry, that's my motto. try to stay attuned to your body; it will tell you when something's wrong. and on another note, be sure to keep some condoms handy whenever you and your boyfriend fool around. you never know when the mood will strike you to relieve yourselves of your virginity. I wish you luck.
Addendum: Honey, I have no idea what your comment means, but I'm going to reiterate and say "No woman knows her own period, NO ONE." We might think we do, but then we have a stressful week or eat too much meat or something, and it goes out of whack. I never said you would know your period, I said you should have a rough estimate of what your "normal" cycle is (i.e about what time it usually comes around), but really, it's just a matter of you happened to avoid any major lifestyle changes that month. Just because you are 17 does not mean you know all there is to know about your body; women who are much older than you haven't a clue sometimes. That's why there are doctors and other health professionals. Try to understand that and you'll be much safer and healthier.
