Why am I gaining weight around my period?

Check these out, too...

Don’t you just love all this growing-up stuff? Well, fortunately, your weight gain is only temporary. It’s your body retaining water, so it’s normal to pack on a couple of extra pounds, but you’ll shed them as soon as your period is over. To lessen the bloats, avoid salty foods, exercise and, oddly enough, drink more water! It helps to flush the excess fluids out of your system.

*MODMODMODMODMODMOD* When I get my period I get major cramps. I always get them around lunch so is their any foods I should stay away from or should eat to make it hurt less?

MOD MOD MOD!I'm going away in october, to a camp retreat with my church. While I'm super excited, I can't help be so nervous. I got my period in August, now it's semptember and it hasn't visted yet, but I'm scared I will get my period again during the retreat. I know that I can just bring pads and it will be fine, but we're hardly ever by the cabins and when we were near a bathroom where I could change, everyone would see me. HELP!

Hey girl, I can understand being a little nervous about it, but you can handle this. If you'll be carrying around a backpack, think about getting a little make-up bag to discreetly store the essentials. That way, no one will see what you've got. You can't control when you get your period, but you can be prepared so you don't miss out on any fun.

Is it possible to not have a vaginal opening? Because if I do look "down there" I can't find it. Nor can I EVER put in a tampon. Help!!!

Hey chickie,

Think about it - if you have your period, that means you're all normal "down there" because there's an opening for it to get out, right? I think you're ok! If you're confused about what you see down there or want to make sure you're developing normally, don't be shy asking your doctor. They've heard it all, trust me!
