This is going to sound crazy, but I get so grossed out when I'm on my period. I can't take looking at all the blood. It makes me gag and stuff. What should I do?
just explain it to your mom, say you are a responsible adult and this has nothing to do with having sex, you just cant stand this period...and explain the bith control is just to stop the period.
go to your doctor, look it up online, and learn about side effects...everyone reacts differently with the "weight gain" side effect..my sister didnt gain any weight, my friend gained 10pounds [but got rid of it with exercise], and my other friend went from a b-cup bra size to a D-CUP....
anyway just talk to your mom about it and she will most likely be FINe with it, most girls perfer using birth control over having a period, LOTs of people do it, most people i do take birth control just to control periods, so dont think youre abnormal...if you dont want a gross period, birth control is the way to go...lol ok hope i helped [ xSharpiexLovex's advice column | Ask xSharpiexLovex A Question ]

You might also want to try shaving, or at least trimming your pubic hair. I know I feel a lot cleaner when there isn't any blood caught in the hair, and it seems to reduce the smell as well. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
dancinangel1029 answered Wednesday August 9 2006, 2:11 pm: i kno its pretty gross but its part of life and you have to live with it. but one way to decrease the sight of blood is to wear a tampon. the tampon will not leak to much and you wont have to see the blood when you take it out and also you should remember to take it out every 6-8 hrs and dont wear them to bed Hope i helped ♥ [ dancinangel1029's advice column | Ask dancinangel1029 A Question ]

But you have to understand it's all part of nature.
If you hate seeing the blood so much, instead of using pads, use tampos. They decrease the chance of leaking and you may see less blodd since you don't have to hassel taking off the pad, wrapping it up in the wrapper, etc.
iheartyoussx3 answered Wednesday August 9 2006, 1:15 pm: hey, well theres no real way of avoiding it completly. if you use pads switch to tampons cause you see more blood when you use pads. also dont let your pad or tampon over flow cause then obv. your going to see more blood.
xomegaroni answered Wednesday August 9 2006, 1:14 pm: hmm..this is a bit complicated because you're going to get your period a lot. maybe try talking to your mom/friend about it?? if you're really grossed out a lot, you should go to the gyno. he/she could help you get through that because that's their job. you don't have to look at it. when you use the bathroom, juss go as quick as possible.
