What Is A Normal Period?

Dear BeingGirl Experts,

I am 16 years old. My periods are quite heavy, so I use Super Plus absorbency Tampax. Is it normal to get such heavy flow?

 

Thanks,

Kristin

Dear Kristin,

Each female is unique. If you can wear a super plus tampon for more than an hour or two without leaking, and your period is less than 8 days long, you are fine. But I do think you need to discuss this with your doctor/healthcare provider at your next exam.

 

Hope this eases your concern,

Your BeingGirl Experts
