Re: Your First Period (Possibly TMI)
(Anonymous) 2012-11-08 05:25 am (UTC)(link)My first period may have been easy, but it took me YEARS to get a handle on the whole process. One problem: I really didn't understand that a lot of the generic information on periods is really just generalizations and not a set of iron-clad rules that everyone's bodies follow. While I'd gotten information about menstruation through school and Girl Scouts, none of my friends had ever confided in me about their experiences and I have no older siblings or cousins, so I was lacking the kind of anecdotes that would clue me in to the fact that there's some variation inherent in the system.
For example, I always heard that a menstrual cycle lasts 28 days, but I never started my next period 28 days after the last one. I used to think I was really irregular because of this. Eventually (YEARS LATER) I realized that I am actually pretty regular, I just have a somewhat longer cycle than "normal." Not once did anyone tell me this was a possibility and I'm still a little resentful about it.
