Puberty And Periods: My Very First Period Kit
The puberty phase can be challenging for you, especially the new changes that your body experiences. Being a girl, you have to go through a bit more than guys, but it’s not as bad as it sounds.
In fact, you can transition out of adolescence very smoothly, thanks to the “my first period kit”. Let’s dive into the whole what, how, and why matter later. Let me talk a bit about the whole menstruation process so you can familiarize yourself with the changes your body is going through.
What Are Periods And Why Do You Have Them?
Without further ado, let me explain quickly what periods are. If you are reaching your teenage years or have already entered the puberty age, it is wise that you read this article to understand and handle this phase.
When a girl reaches the age of puberty, her hormones start to change and periods are a product of that. Now, what is this period thing that I have been babbling about? It is a vaginal discharge of blood– your body gets rid of the lining that builds up in your uterus.
A healthy girl is supposed to have them every month and if you don’t, then it’s wise to consult a doctor. Every woman needs to have regular menses in order to stay fertile– the discharge is a sign of your body prepping for pregnancy and when it doesn’t happen, it discards the lining in the uterus.
What To Expect From Periods?
Apart from vaginal bleeding, you can expect abdominal pain, cramps, and cravings for unusual stuff like chocolate and hot sauce, or pickled peppers. You may also face pain in your lower back or legs, some bloating or swelling in breasts, fatigue, body aches, mood swings, and irritability.
Before you actually get your period, you may also experience PMS (short for premenstrual syndrome) in which you may feel strong emotions and mood swings.
