Are these clumps OK?!

 

Check these out, too...

  • Pad prob! How do I get them from my locker to the bathroom?
  • Have a happier period--yes, really!--with our playlist
  • Does it hurt when you first get your period?
  • I need longer pads! How do I tell Mom?
  • What stinks down south?

I get brown clumps on my pad during my period, and it freaks me out!


What’s wrong?


Nothing like brown clumps to remind you that periods are, well, icky! But relax—you’re fine. When a girl’s flow is in full force, it tends to be red. But when it slows down, it becomes brown from air exposure.


Plus, your uterus is self-cleaning, so when you menstruate you shed its lining. That means clumps and clots are not only OK, they’re part of the process.

Help me! I talk in my sleep!
My family recently went on a trip- and we all stayed in one hotel room. It's so embarrassing because then I mumbled all night! The next day my mom asked me what i had been talking about, and i didn't remember anything. What can I do???

Take the stairs more than once. When you’re at home, run up and down the stairs three or four times before heading to your room. It’s a sneaky way to stay active.
