Menstruation; TERRIFIED please give me some reassurance!

[alex_ker]

Okay, so i'm 15 and i've had my period for about 2 years now. I recently read on the internet that some girls v* from their period. Immediatly, i freaked out. Now i'm on my period (having cramps) and i'm terrified, im too scared to eat, i cant sleep. I really don't want to get sick from my period

Somebody please give me some reassurrance or some of your experiences to relieve me. I'm really scared and even worse i don't have a mom to talk to about this

Relax if you have been having period for 2 years your gonna be fine. Ive been having them for 20 years and right from when they started at 11 i have never once v*d. Mine are horrendously painful and i get really swollen but as i say i have never ever been physically ill. Dont worry and please eat coz u have to have periods for a good few years yet and not having food at the time of the month could be detrimental to your health.

Thank you, that helps a lot. Even my grandma said she has never v* from her period. So i'm feeling a little better. And i'm going to go make some breakfast now, i'm starving and thats only making me feel worse!

Yep definately eat and in half an hour you will feel loads better. And please stop worrying

I have never heard of such. I mean, I guess some girls can get sick if they have really bad pain and cant handle the pain. I have terrible cramps too, but never have i gotten sick from it. Take some Midol or Pamprin and you will feel much better I HATE my period!

Eat light/healthy foods, take some tylenol, and relax! You won't v*. I've had mine for about 10 years and never v*'d.

i heard some cases like this, it can happened, but if you have it 2 years and it has never happened to you, i think you don't have to worry. :-)
