thanks for the info

how do u know what pads to wear

Rachel, thank you for the great information!

she's losing me.... i keep tuning out.... Stay On Topic!!!!

I had my period on my first day of softball practice and I went to the bath room before hand and my undies where red and then I kind of freaked out and ran to my room and tried to clean up but it was crazy so i took of my underwear and went to my moms room and threw them on her bed and she helped me get put a pad on. I went to practice and was afraid people would notice but nobody did! A few days ago I went to school and we had TCAPS and my period had stopped but then started and I could not go to the bath room during the test and did not bring a pad or pants so I had to ask my friend who knew I hate just had my first period a couple of days ago. I was worried people would see the stain so I tied my hoodie around my waist and my friend for a pad and she gave me one and made sure I was okay. She helped me a lot!

I feel like I'm and because I'm in 6 grade and I'm the only one who has had there period and all the guys keep making fun of my and call me Periodic Macey so I put it as my screen name to show that its ok if I have my period early and I don't care about what they say

Rachel is awesome!!

i watched this vedio and you mentioned that you having a period is saying your healthy and other things I will be 18 this year and I started my period in the 6th grade I was at the state fair and I was prepared I also didn't tell any one until I got home that night I wrote my step mom a not it said "I started my . and the dot was red she didn't get it my dad walked out and asked herr if she knew what I meant I got red and she shook her head no he told her and she was like OH and then got me things. it ended the next day I had a few more that year and now I go up to 6-10 months not having one its hereditary says the other women in my family and I feel very different I was the first out of my friends to get theirs and to have boobs and every thing and now I feel even more left out because I do not get one at all usually so dose it really have anything to do with being healthy? what are some other things it has to do with?

I think Rachel is really informative
