Hello All PEs Winter here!
Ack, sorry I'm a day late... I'm on my period, I'm stick, I have school, things happen! Sowwy.
So, picture this,
I'm home, it's five o'clock, tralalalala, nothing to do here! Then, I feel that familiar wetness.
I dash to the bathroom, and to my despair, we are out of pads. So, I of course, have a really heavy flow, and, I've never used a tampon. However, it's the only thing...

A Quick Update
Hey guys! As you may have noticed, we haven't posted much of anything in a while. We're really sorry about that. I think we may have mentioned this somewhere; all of us writers are Nanowrimo participants, so we took a break for that and never really got ourselves back together. Again, we apologize for that. The good news is, we're going to start back up again! We hope to get the blog up and running...

A Personal Period Story - But Not Necessarily A Horror Story
Yesterday was the day of killer cramps for me. I was okay until about midday, when the cramps hit me hard while I was trying to clean my room. At first I was okay with walking around holding a heatbag to my stomach, but just after my mum left to do some errands they became unbearable.
I laid down on my bed and rolled around a bit painfully while my cats watched me with confusion. I started chanting...

What can go wrong with your period
Periods generally work the same way. However, lots of things can go wrong with your period. Here's a few of them, as well as some common symptoms and cures.
Heavy Flow; your period is consistently very heavy and you go through a lot of menstrual products (e. g. pads, tampons) per day.
You could have a tumor in your uterus. These tumors become more common as you age.
To get rid of a tumor, you'd...

Menstruation On The TARDIS
Came across this online, thought I'd share:
In my opinion, with the number of female companions there have been, he probably knows all about menstruation. I think Nine would have been like, "Ah, yes, I'll drop you off right away." Ten would have been very serious and grim, but handled it alright....

Periods and your teacher. (Also, grade 7 boys- personal horror story included)
You've tried to avoid it. We all have. But sometimes, there comes a moment when talking to your teacher about your period is necessary. For me, it was necessary in Gifted class in grade 7. We were working a project where we had to build a stable bridge out of tape, straws, and popsicle sticks. I was assigned a group with two boys. While the teacher was handing out...

When Facing A Thousand Products
Have you ever walked
down the "Feminine Hygiene" section of the grocery store? There are loads of different products to choose from -
pads, pantiliners, tampons, moon cups, soft cups, Diva cups, (all of those are
separate things) even disposable underwear. On top of that, there are thirty
different variations of each one. How the heck can you choose?
I can't speak for
all products. I've only ever...

Dad, I'm On The Red River: Fathers and Menstruation
As all of us
probably know, it's awkward, uncomfortable, and downright scary to talk to your father about periods.
However, your dad loves you and wants to help you. He'll probably be happy to
help if you need it.
That still doesn't
eliminate the awkward-uncomfortable-scary part. Today, I had a tense
conversation with my father so that I could write a post on this. And guess
what? It wasn't...

Periods and Sickness
First of all, I'd like to say for the record how fitting this post is. When I was actually supposed to write this, I had the flu, and once I got better, I got crushed under homework mountain. I wasn't on my period, but I just wanted to point out the irony.
Being sick and on your period is miserable. Along with the normal crummy period symptoms, you also have to deal with...

Talking to younger sisters about your period
Hey guys! Today I'm going to talk about telling younger sisters about your period. I've got 5 younger sisters, ages 11 to 2 weeks, so I get a lot of awkward questions, as well as lots of different levels of understanding. When I'm on my flow, the 11 year old asks a bunch of questions because it's going to happen to her soon, the 8 year old doesn't care what's happening, the 6 year old doesn't care...
