    Hi smile

    Awww I feel so sorry for you. Us women don't get it easy do we wink

    Firstly, I am not a doctor, so don't take my advice as gospel. You really do need to go and see your doctor. It sounds from what you've described like you could be anaemic. If your period is heavy and you feel all faint then it is a possibility. It is easily sorted though - iron tablets will do the trick, but you will need to go see the doc and explain just what you've said on here so he can take bloods. Also, there are tablets that can stop the hevy bleeding. smile

    I am 21.

    Me too, very sore to a point that cannot sit, cannot stand, cannot walk, cannot lie down, cannot stay awake and cannot sleep! Everyday when I have period, blood bursted out crazily, I needed to change more than twice!

    Last month, I changed for few times and suddenly, during lessons (I am a Primary teacher), blood bursted out so crazily.

    I needed help as well!

    I'm 22, and having been having this problem since I first got me period at 11. Like you, I've very pale to begin with so I get comments about how sick I look when I'm bleeding. I would definitely go to a gynecologist. Get some bloodwork done to look at your hormone levels, and an ultrasound of your uterus to make sure you don't have anything going on in there (like cysts or fibroids). Just so you know, regardless of what your test results are, the doctor's first course of action will likely be birth control. Personally, I've tried all available progesterone pills (I can't take estrogen because of migraines) and am on the Nexplanon that's implanted in your arm, and nothing seems to be working. But first and foremost, go see GYN. Best of luck!
