Dealing with a painful period
Lots of us get menstrual pain.
We know it can get really bad.
For some of us, the pain makes us cry. For others, it stops them from doing everyday things.
Does this sound like you? If it does, don’t get scared. The pain is perfectly normal. It’s also usually easy to deal with.
Why does it hurt?
Period pain comes when our uterine (womb) muscles contract and relax.
Our uterine lining peels away during our period. That is why we bleed. This can also hurt.
What can’t cause the pain?
Some people say sugary drinks, cheese and oil make the pain worse. There is no proof of this.
Food that causes bloating can make the pain worse. So stay away from junk food or food with too much salt.
It is important we eat healthy during our period.
What can I do about the pain?
A hot drink or hot bath can help ease the pain. Relaxing or lying down can also help.
Does the pain affect your normal activities? You may have to try medication.
Talk to a trusted/qualified responsible adult. They can help you decide what to take. They can also explain how to take the medicine. It’s important for us to be careful when taking any medicine. We have to keep ourselves safe!

Hey girl! Thanks for asking for your friend. Vaginal odor can be due to a number of reasons, such as bacterial growth, yeast infections, poor hygiene, hormonal changes, and sexually transmitted diseases. To prevent odours, wash your private part with just water every time you use the toilet. Also, change your underwear regularly and make sure it you change into a clean one, drink lots of water but most importantly, please tell her to talk to a trusted adult and also see a doctor. We hope this helps.

Hey Serena! Some people see their periods twice a month because menstrual circle is from 21 days to 35 days (depending on the individual). Some also get their periods 13 times a month instead of the regular 12 times (once a month). Just be sure that your period is within the 35 days windows by calculating. There are various reasons for irregular periods as it is called but we suggest you talk to a trusted adult and see a doctor about this. We hope this helps.

Hey Honeym! There are different signs and symptoms when it comes to periods and they sometimes change so it is normal. Having cramps sometimes depends on what you have been eating so you need to look back and see what you have been feeding yourself with. We suggest you try eating healthy (more fruits and vegetables). Cut down the sweets, biscuits, soft drinks and other types of junk. Sometimes, what you eat affects things like your menstrual cycle. Also, please talk to a trusted adult around you and if possible, see a doctor. We hope this helps

I haven't seen my period but I always have stomach pain, pain in my navel and mucus in my vagina. Pls is that a sign that I'm close to seeing my period?

Latest Reply
Hey Mimi! Thanks for opening up through this comment. First of all, stomach pain/cramps are normal and some people get cramps before their period so it may be normal for some people. Secondly, what you see on your pant is called vaginal discharge and not mucus. It is not just whitish, there are other colors and feels that occur at different times in your menstrual cycle. It could be clear, milky or stretchy depending on your cycle. The only time you should be worried about a discharge is if it green or yellow in colour, if its clumpy like cheese, if it has a bad odour, rashes, swelling or if it itches. Seeing a discharge does not necessarily mean that your period is coming soon. We hope this helps.

Hello Nnenna! It's great that you already know your cycle. If it is 23-25 days then that means that you will be ovulating 11th to 13th day of your period. This is the time you are most likely to get pregnant. About 5 days before your ovulation and 3 days after your ovulation will also be fertile and can get pregnant if you have sex. We do not know of any way to get a boy and we think you should be careful when getting advice from anyone who says they know how you can get a boy. Please do not do anything that may be harmful to you. We hope this helps.

Hey 2180! We believe every girl is beautiful regardless of her shape and size. This is what makes us all unique and special. We advise that you love your body and see the beauty in it. To gain weight, you can eat lots of carbohydrate and fats, eat lots of tropical fruits e.g banana, eat often, don't drink water before you eat so that your tummy won't be full, drink milk and yoghurts, get lots of sleep and don't forget to enjoy yourself while doing all these because worrying also makes one loose weight. We hope this helps.

Hey Nervous! Thanks for the comment. This is not true. The size of your breast is hormonal and cannot be increased by someone touching it. Please, do not believe that a boy touching your breast will increase it because it won't. We hope this helps

Dear friend. I want u to know that masturbation is a sin against God. I dunno if u are a christian. And every sin attracts a punishment. Eternal punishment. Hell. Secondly, u masturbate for pleasure. After that quick pleasure, u feel empty and all stupid again. Then why do it? Masturbation thirdly, makes u unclean. Masturbation is one major cause of infidelity. WAY OUT? God helps those who help themselves. make ur effort to stop. Pray and fast about it if u really want to get out of it. God bless u.
Hey Springster! Thanks for the comment. Masturbation (especially among teenagers and girls your age) is normal because you are at a stage where you are trying to figure out your body and also explore. So many people your age do this so it is normal. Masturbation is frowned on by most cultures and religions. Also, getting addicted to masturbation can affect you sexually later on in life. If you really want to stop it, you need to make up your mind and make sure you stick to it. Also, look for a strong distraction that will keep you busy all the time so that you won't have the time to masturbate. We hope this helps
nice one

I experience terrible menstrual cramps. I can't do anything when I experience them and I'm usually confined to my bed. My painkillers rarely work and when they do, it takes a long time to start. Usually I have a hot water bottle that I use and that helps with the pain.

Hey Maelee! Thanks for the comment. We are so sorry and trust me, we understand how you feel. It's a good thing that you have figured out that hot water bottles work for you, we advise that you stick to it. Also, try to avoid taking sweet things about a week to your period and see if there will be an improvement with the pain. We hope this helps
My periods are always accompanied by very painful cramps. It always hurts badly for the first two days. It also affects my knees and legs.
