period. Ah.
i recently got my period for the first time yesturday. im having really bad flows. like they are extremley heavy. i asked what i should do about it on here, and everyone said it should die down in a while but its not. if anything its heavier. im pretty much disgusted and dont want to use a pad anymore so im thinking about trying to get my fucking anyoying dad who i serouisly HATE at the moment out of the house, and ask my mom to go get me tampons because pads are WAY to much of a mess.
any good brands of tampons i should use?
and any advice on the whole period thing?
i serouisly hate this like its uncontrolable. EW.

Oh my gosh, you think it's such a big deal. You haven't seen anyone elses flow, so how do you know it's alot? ALMOST EVERYONE HAS A HEAVY FLOW. You don't wear the same pad all day!! You're supposed to change it about 3-5 times per day!! Just chillax..

A good brand of tampon is tampax pearl. It has a rounded tip which makes things easier. Its kind of hard to give advice about someones period when it is there first period. This could be because its your first period and your hormones are changing. I know it sucks but wait it out. If this happens again next month, you might want to consider birth control because it will make your periods lighter.

Disposable pads and tampons are very unhealthy and bad for the environment. Check some health food stores for Divacups, Keepers, or Mooncups. They are rubber cups that you wear like tampons, but they don't cause TSS and they last about ten years. Flannel pads are very comfortable and healthy too.
Periods are almost always very heavy and uncomfortable for the first few times. They lighten when you get out of puberty.

i reccomend ones with a plastic applicater.
i use playtex sport.
but you could try tampax pearl too.
if you just try not to focus on it, it's not as bad. and the first is the worst, so don't worry about it.

For your first period, your flow will most likley be one of your heaviest considering its the first time and all. So yeah, that will EVENTUALLY die down after a few flows, so I wouldn't stress over that. I was the same way.
I do recommend tampons cause they are so much more comfortable. I would highly recommend Tampax Pearls because they are 10x easier to use. I've used cardboards ones and I wasn't the least bit happy with them.
Be sure to keep up with your hygeine by showering everday especially since you're on your period. But like I said, your flow should die down in a little while. If your flow remains insanley heavy for several months you can talk to your doctor about birth control options, thats what my friend did. In the meantime, try to find something else to keep yourself busy.
Good Luck<3

ok all people are different and there flows are different usaully when you get your period for the first time so no need to worry if it is contunious then i suggest to contact a doctor if it is like reeeally heavy ...
for tampon brands there are many but it depends on cardboard or plastic i think cardboard is just messy and disguisting plastic is more comfy!!
soome good brands are:
*playtex gentle glide
*kotex
*tampax pearl
are pretty good i hope i helped! <33
