What I love about my period

Okay...I know periods can be crampy and have terrible timing sometimes, but they are soooooooo good too!

I love mine. I get really excited when it is about to happen, it makes em feel good, like I am a woman walking with the moon. I like the way it affects my body, makes my boobs feel heavier and my body more fertile. I just love it.

 

I think that is a great attitude to have about your period...I have to agree with you...I think they are so good...makes me feel great to know that I am a woman who can bear children if I so desire to...

I don't dig the whole birth control thing where you don't get your periods, that really bothers me...it is very unnatural....

 

Oh me too. It definitely makes me feel weird...

 

Yea, the cramps bother me too but I understand what you mean...And the "only have your period 4 times a year" really is unnatural and very strange...I don't think I could ever go on that...

 

I hate my periods. I get so emotional and angry that i could probly kill someone.

 

^ You should go into them with a more positive attitude lol

 

for some reason it bothers me too, and im not even a woman.

 

I hate birth control, but I have extreme ovarian pain when I ovalant and when I'm on my period. My hips get so sore from it. Birth control may help this. I start Yaz next month.

 

I love my period too. I never get cramps or experience any pain, so I guess I am one of the few fortunate ones in that respect.

What I love the most, is how sensitive my breasts and nipples become. They want so much attention right before I get my period. And then right after my period, my clit is also more sensitive and I feel damn sexy all over.

I know what you are talking about Cate8, and it does feel good to have a period.

 

I never really thought of it that way...

I guess I will begin to appreciate my period more. Although, I love how a week before I start, I go up an entire cup size--granted, they are sore usually and very tender, but I still like flaunting my huge boobs just before I start

 

There's just no way I can appreciate my period. I get irregular, heavy cramps that last days and interfere with my every day life. I just feel like shit the whole time im on it. The only way I can feel better is if I take birth control pills because it regulates the flow, but I wish I didn't have to take anything. I wish I felt more like you gals....

 

I am going to be taking bc pills to clear my skin, so Ill be on them too

 

Chap...I get terrible periods, too. Generally every other month I'm in the ER for hemorrhaging. Being on bc only made it a little better...but I do enjoy the boobs I get-haha.

 

I actually don't hate very much, but there is honestly NOTHING I like about periods. I am generally sick the week before-I get nausea and stomach cramps, on top of period cramps. It's like having a stomach bug AND your period. The during-period cramps are hell, and they last 2-3 days. 2-3 days of crippling pain never really flies will with me.

 

I hate my period, too much pain and moodyness combined.

 

glad i'm not the only one...

 

I'm really fortunate in that aspects that mine are regular, cramping is VERY minimal, and I don't really bleed all that hard, and my moods don't change. It's a bit of inconvienence, but it's kinda reassuring to know that my body is working properly, ya know?

 

I'll tell you what I love most about my period .... that is, THAT I DONT HAVE IT ANYMORE! YAY! Lets hear it for havin' a hysterectomy!

 

i like that it lets me know i didnt do something stupid while drunk and get pregnant. haha (i'm kidding.. i dont sleep around when i'm drunk, not that kinda girl).

my cysts in my ovaries get bigger than normal often (which hurts a lot), so i am supposed to be taking the pill to help it. but i dont have the money for it and i sure as hell dont have the time to deal with adapting to the change in hormones.

 

I'm on the pill too so I don't get anymore ovarian cysts...but it's ok, it's made me super regular which is nice...instread of just getting it once every few months and having it be horribley painful.

I really love my period too. I like how passionate it makes me, I like feeling those extreme emotions. And I like how connected I feel with the cycles of the planet, and the reminder that I have the potential to create life with my body, and just remembering all the really wonderful things about being a woman...Like it hurts, and has some negatives, but it's life.

At some fests I went to this summer they would have a red tent for woman on their periods to go have a safe and comfortable santuary to read, do yoga, meditate, makes crafts, paint, get massage, talk to other woman, chill...It was really helpful.
