is it all right to where tan pants when you have your period?

you can wear any color of pants you want if you are wearing a tampon. if only using pads, i would watch very closely.

You can wear a pad and a tampon at the same time, there is nothing wrong with that.  An alternative is to wear a tampon and a pantiliner, which is smaller than a pad.\n\nSometimes tampons leak, even if you insert them correctly.  So if you don't wear something else with it just make sure to monitor how you are feeling 'down there.'

If it is for a yeast infection, it is fine to use while your on your period.  The only side effect is just a being a little messy.

Nope, Mother nature decides when and how long your period lasts. Sorry.

Yes you can. You can do what every you what to do on your period,but what I would do is where a tampon and a pad and take some Tylenol or what every you take so that you will fill oak when you are working out. Good lock

As all the rest has said this is normal.  Wonderful being a woman, huh?  Just make sure you keep yourself clean, douche when necessary and wear pantyliners if it makes you uncomfortable.

I'm with ya, hon! Orange is wayyyy out! If you can't get a natural tan, stay away from those cheap ones in a bottle! They make you look really dumb! Tanning beds are ok, as long as you don't overdo it. I start my tan, like I said, "I start my tan" in April, in a tanning bed. However, once I have a base tan, the rest is all natural! I don't want to look older than I really am! I want to be healthy, and I don't let myself burn. People who tan so much that their skin looks like leather looks horrible!

If you are just entering puberty, (12-14), it tends to be itchy. If you are wearing underwear, try switching to boxers. I can't wear underwear because of the chaffeing.\n\nTry hanging loose for a copuple days... Dont wear any underwear under your pants. Just dont wear shorts lol.

If the discharge is soaking through to your pants, then it might be too much.  Having a lot of discharge before you get your first period is normal - the discharge is just lubrication, like tears for your eyes or wax for your ears.  \nIt's odd that the pantyliners would be uncomfortable - they are pretty thin and I don't even notice that they are there.  Pads are bulkier and take some getting used to.  Go back to the store and make sure you are buying the smallest liners and pads available - I started out borrowing my mother's, which were HUGE in comparison and were awkward on my tiny frame.\nYes, you will always feel a bit "sticky" between your body and the pad/liner, just like a bandaid and a fresh wound.  It gets better, and you learn how to carry your body in a way that minimizes the awkwardness and spotting.  I do it subconsciously now, but I can remember that it felt awkward and unnatural when I was starting out. Just keep experimenting and practising - it will get easier, I promise.\n\nPlease be careful about using tampons - sticking one of those in yourself may prove to be the most uncomfortable option of all!  Also, leaving a tampon in too long or forgetting to take one out can cause toxic shock syndrome - my friend is an ER doctor and tells some very scary stories about TSS!

I have found that this question of yours is NOT that unusual. When the menses begin...and each of them in your life is 'Different', there can be a starting of the menstruation cycle itself in a variety of ways. Much of this depends upon your basic health and regularity of your period, and if there is anything that is exacerbating stress, dietary factors, trauma.....these amongst many others can play a vital role in your period. The older blood is just that, and when the heavier flow comes out it brings with it the rest of this....often seen as brown and nearly grainy. Perhaps the thought of this in text is making you queasy and that is NOT my intention. It is NOT unusual for the body to start up....spot a day or two before hand and then begin the menstrual flow in its regular sequence or shall I say what is regular for you. You know your body better than anyone, and depending upon your age....other factors intervene. Age is one, again diet and exercise. Ask yourself if you're tired before this or perhaps amped ...we are ALL different. If there is a continuation of the more 'brown' or older blood, I recommed that you see a Physician....get a pelvic...for perhaps for whatever reason you might be a candidate for a D&C. Are your menses painful? If only periodically I have found that the comfort at home is warmth. Do not be afraid to soak...that is to bathe. This is hailed often, the menses as a curse, wherein it is nature's way of cleansing your uterus. It is important to at this point to say please keep your regular checkups with your gynocologist and allow your doctor to have a talk with any of your questions. I know that for myself what you have mentioned is in no way unusual. Please understand that you're NOT to keep from your physical regimen...unless you are tired..and please keep up your fluid intake.\nYour doctor will be the one to know and it might serve you well to keep a diary or small calendar in your drawer or medicine cabinet as to the regularity or the sometimes "I didnt quite expect this.." questions...all of this is important. As for a heavier flow, there is still no certainty that there will be a stopping or forestallig of the older blood. Please remember that it's your body and your own inherent body clock or circaddian rhythms dictate a lot of what is to happen to you during this time. I am not your doctor...this is merely my take from past experience and knowing many women who experience the very same thing. for now, I wouldn't worry, were I you, just keep track of this and see if there is any change in tha amount of days and flow. In conclusion, it sounds as though you are healthy, and don't rule "IN" a problem unless advised by your physician. Lastly if pain of any sort accompnies this, please inform your doctor for they can and very often WILL do a pelvic during your period. Should any problem persist, they will ( your doctor's office) refer you to a specialist if there is due cause. In and of all of this there may be the occasional fibroid or cyst. This is whyit is vital that you make and keep your appointments with your doctor.

you should ask your obgyn first if they think that is a good idea for your body. also, your body might still let some blood out or have spotting because it isnt used to that kind of cycle, so you might not miss the period anyway

well my friend just started having her period....\nand she didn't know. so basically it was all over her pants, left little marks over the chairs we sat on after lunch through out the day till a teacher told her. and by then she sat on 5 chairs. \n\n\nnot from 6th grade, but 4th grade, i had a friend who slept through our standard test (WASL) the whole thing.

Yes thats perfectly normal. Because during your period the layer of skin is shedding and that may cause your vagina to become slightly irratated and cause it to itch. There are creams you can get that you use before your period and that usually stops the itching.

Cam down! eat some chocolate and you'll be fine. if this is your first period i'm sure you've heard tons of thins about what it can do to you.  ( like mess your body up) someimes it's all just in your head, just chill out and let your  body do it's thing. if you don't wanna be attracted to boys, then that's not a crime. but you're not a lesbian, s don't think that.  your body is just trying to get used to what's going on with your body

Believe me, leg hair isn't going to keep us any warmer, so we willl have to wear pants anyway.  It is a self-esteem, beauty issue.  I do it out of habit and I enjoy the result.
