I only started getting period mouth ulcers recently and it’s blowing my mind that it’s a thing. Never heard of it before. Now I get two or three ulcers during it. I thought something was seriously wrong with me wtf

I thought something was seriously wrong with me wtf Periods are amazing, aren't they? You can have literally ANY problem like mouth ulcers, debilitating headaches, and rashes, and they'll all be diagnosed as "eh, that's what happens with you broads and your wacky periods"

It would also have been nice to know what an "average" flow is like, because I would have liked to learn BEFORE my 30s that bleeding through a super-plus tampon in two hours is unusual/worthy of concern.

I can deal with the "it's 3 am, you've bled through your stuff, let's change clothes and bedlinen AND have a surprise shower!" I DESPISE the heart going pitty pat for days on end - it's like having the grim reaper constantly at your elbow saying "you know, I could end you like *this*" Edit: close second is SUPER SMELL POWER. Some loving genius in evolution decided that a hormone spike should give us extra-sensitive smell powers just about when we are surrounded by extremely gross smells. That's just mean.

Starting in the middle of the night is unusual but at least its polite enough to wake me up with cramps too painful to sleep through to let me know

I've never smelled anyone else's period, ever, so I have to conclude it's not as smelly as it feels like. Also mine still ain't started properly. day three of cramps, of exhaustion. But at least today I'm not sad! Today I am loving *raging*. I could kick this house in half. Rrrr.

Ok but you know when you go to do washing, you pick up some pants and think “hmm are these dirty enough to wash?” so you give them a sniff and think “oh yeah… I had my period this week didn’t I”. It’s not even a blood smell necessarily, it’s just… period crotch smell

Except people who were in a *really* bad way, and they smelled of like, lots of things.

Does anyone get nausea after their period? I just had a very intense period that was like 5 straight days of clots. And as soon as it ended like every afternoon for three days I’ve just felt this intense nausea and exhaustion. Covid test is negative. Temperature is normal. gently caress bodies.

Yup, exhaustion and nausea for day after day after day. I want to sleep forever but I can't actually sleep more than about 7 hours because more is NOT ALLOWED.

God that feeling in the middle of your period where you wake up in the morning and you are ragingly thirsty, and you really need to pee, but you are reluctant to move because when you do, that hallway scene from The Shining will re-enact itself in your underwear.

And just like that, after a full day of period shits, night-time pads, and blood clots that could fill the palm of my hand, my period stopped. Completely.

The mouth ulcers thing just blew my mind. Solved a mystery for me. Also my boobs are absolutely killing me rn. Even the slightest jiggling from regular moving around is the worst.

I don't get mouth ulcers but I do get at least one, usually multiple, stye(s) which is like. Really sexy. I do want to post about my gratitude for my diva cup bc man does dealing with my period twice a day and forgetting I'm even bleeding during the rest of the day make me feel so much more like a human being with competence and dignity than the alternatives Also maybe it's just PCOS hormone weirdness but beyond like the first or second day of my period all the mood poo poo lifts and I'm actually in a better than average mood for the rest? Feels clean feels organic

Mouth ulcers are my biggest physical tell, along with ranker than normal sweat when I'm working out. I always feel stinkier in general in the lead up to and during my period.

So I’m 4 days clear of a full day of heavy bleeding, period shits and massive clots. I just woke up lying on my back to realise I had farted and…something didn’t feel right. The mattress over under my rear end felt wet, almost like I’d pissed myself in my sleep. Put my hand down there and turned on the torch on my phone only to be greeted by my blood-covered fingers, a bloodstained mattress and my nice brand new white underwear looking like my cooch had been directed by Akira Kurosawa. It’s almost Valentine’s weekend FFS. I had plans to get railed by Mr Alleyway.

15 hours, a restless night's sleep, 5 pad changes and 8 giant blood clots later, my flow has finally started to slow down to a point where I'm not afraid to stand up in case my cooch decides to randomly sneeze out yet another giant clot. I feel like evolution could've found a less trousers-and-bedsheets-ruining signal for 'not pregnant'.

Imagine if periods were 100% on time, and just came out in one megaflow? Like, you'd just set up an alarm that you NEED to be in a bathroom at, say, 3.00pm every 28 days and that would be that, all done in 5 minutes. Conversely, imagine the horror when you realise you accidentally muted alarms, and here you are sitting in a subway at Bloodbath O'Clock?

re: leak chat, I was in HS drama class and the girl in front of me on stage during rehearsal had leaked, I immediately whipped off my flannel (yay 90s), went up behind her, tied it around her waist and succinctly whispered that she'd had an accident and to go to the nurse asap. Mission successful because none of the boys knew, and she gave me my flannel back the next day with a huge hug lol
