That time of the month and tips

I’m not sure if it’s just the placebo effect, but in India, they tell you to wash your hair on the 2nd day because it makes the period finish faster. Every time I wash my hair on the 2nd day of my period, the flow gets heavier :eyes:

My cramps have gotten so bad now, I can totally appreciate the four years of my life when they were not that bad. I have to carry ibuprofen or some other medicine to school just in case it gets too much.

When I had mine, I laughed nervously because my mom had been telling me about it for months, but I didn’t think she was serious!
