My af is like, sooooo bad right now.
Its like, heavier than its ever been.
.E.V.E.R.
I go thru a super plus tampon in like, 45
minutes and i've
ruined 3 pairs of undies that were really
nice.
(almost ruined my favorite jeans.)
is this normal? I mean, is it common? I
feel like im hemorrhaging lol.

They say if you fill up a pad in an hour
or less, that's too much blood and you
should go to the doctor.
When I was miscarrying, I was filling up a
pad ever like 5-10 minutes and it turned
out I had a really bad .Uterine
.Infection.
Sounds like a lot of blood though..I'd
maybe get it checked out if it doesn't
stop by tomorrow.

No, it isn't right.
If you need more than 1 pad or 1 super
tampon per hour you should head straight
to a doctor as this can result in
significant blood loss,anaemia, fainting,
or even shock.

Yeah this morning it got as bad as like,
every 10 minutes a super tampon was making
me leak everywhere.
I know tmi.
I had a pad on .A.N.D a super plus in and
I still leaked everywhere and even had
blood running down my legs after 20
minutes.
Im hoping it will slow down sometime this
morning if not, to the .E.R I go.

i thought this might help...But I think
it's been a little too long, so it
probably won't apply.

I found this it made me feel a .L.O.T
better lol
q. My first period after my pregnancy was
really heavy and painful. Is something
wrong?
A. "the golden rule is that the first
period you have after childbirth is always
weird," says Dr. Minkin. "the good news
is they almost always get better from
there." pain and heavy menstrual flow
are also extremely common after giving
birth, simply because your body isn't
accustomed to ovulating and menstruating
regularly, so your initial period may be
tougher on your system.
