HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA oh my god. Whoever wrote that is a genius... props to Susan (then Alex) for finding it. :lol:

A few things, though.

1) Wings are my savior. That chick must be doing something wrong. I can't deal with pads without them, and I wear old junky underwear when I get my period, but that doesn't mean I want them covered with blood. :lol:

2) My GOD she must barely bleed at all if she bought Kotex Lightdays Pantiliners for the first day of her period. :freak:

I've gotta say that I'm horribly horribly HORRIBLY jealous. :mad:

She didn't say it was the first day, did she?
I agree with you on the wings thing.

I laughed most at the ninja part.

The ninja part was awesome.

I think she said at the beginning of it that it was the first day. *checks*

Hmm... I guess I just assumed from this:

Yes, the commies are invading. This led to a desperate 1 a.m. expedition to the store to get more supplies with which to hold off the onslaught.

I've gotten blood on knickers before. Its called bleach guys, you add it to the washing machine in the bleach section, and it takes care of all blood related messes.

Only if your knickers are white, you prude.

nuh uh, it works on ALL colours. You put it in the bleach part of the washer and then it dilutes it so its safe on all colours.

Wow. That's incredibly demeaning.

I was trying to find bleach, but i couldn't.

So... does anyone have any idea what might be going on here?
About a week ago I started feeling really weak and dizzy and very tired, as well as achey and stuff, which is exactly what I feel like right before I get my period. It was also the right time, so I just spent a day in bed and was like great, I'll have it by tonight/tomorrow. Well... it didn't come. So not only do I have no explanation for why I was/still sometimes am feeling like that, but I'm a week and a half late, which never happens.

delayed periods can be caused by too much stress and/or a significant amount of exercise. that's what i know.

or, you're pregnant

Your eating habits mess with your period too. Unless I'm on the pill I have no idea when I'm going to get my period. Sometimes I skip a month altogether but it's because of how I eat. Those do sound like pregnancy symptoms too.

Heh. Not pregnant. Could be the exercise thing, though. I went on a big athletic kick this month... I though that made you get it sooner, though.

afealicious · Post by **afealicious** » 6/19/2005, 1:44 pm

a lot of exercise will reduce the amount of body fat deposits. body fat deposits are needed to help produce estrogen, and a lack of estrogen will result in a failure to build up the uterine lining, so mentruation would slow down or stop. that's why those little prodigy 5-year-old gymnasts generally don't get their periods until they are 15 or older.

another useful thing to know is that bone density declines as estrogen production does, so you should always slightly increase your calcium intake when excerising a lot. or you'll get osteoporosis when you're older.
