Menses

What is your menstrual system like?

What products do you use?

Emotional changes?

Have you ever bled during a full moon?

I’m on a full 7 day cycle that I keep track of.

I have use tampons, pads, cups, and now I’ve been using underwear. Free bleeding is interesting. I used to use the diva cup but since I don’t have sex anymore, it was painful to use. But I am enjoying my underwear.

I usually get a massive sugar rush before the visit. I allow myself a simple pleasure here and there. Exercise is nonexistent for a couple days.

Yes, a few times I sync up with the full moon.

I had periods for a while, but then I found out that it was from an engineer. I removed the magic and stopped getting fake periods.

Even though they weren't real/natural, they were still accompanied by PMS symptoms like fatigue, cramps and acne. All of that went away for good when I got rid of the black magic. No bleeding or monthly issues of any kind ever again.

A disgusting, abusive guy named Rainier(who doesn't wipe, by the way)gives women and girls painful period engineers and tells them it's their natural cycle when really, it isn't. Sometimes he hides the engineer or has it made into a tweak, power or tara, but still... he's been doing this since the beginning of time and telling people that periods are the result of karma(or "bad justice").

I've never gotten a natural period before, but Rainier's periods are utterly horrible and debilitating for most people.

Mine was the 23rd. It's usually gone within 5 days, barely any cramps. My bathroom sometimes resembles the bathroom scene in the movie IT except no scary clowns. I do get tenderness in the breast area and sugar cravings. Pads for the most part.

I went vegan for a short time and I lost my period completely

I went vegan for a short time and I lost my period completely

I’ve been vegan for two years and haven’t had that issue. The only time I’ve lost mine was from over working out and not eating enough calories to make up the deficit.

Sea sponge tampons were my jam for a long time. Because I’m running out and didn’t wanna purchase more (the vegan thing), I’ve been trying to get used to a cup. The Intima? It’s one of the soft ones that can be worn during sex. Either I don’t know how to insert it correctly or my pubic bone isn’t pronounced enough to keep it in place. 😕

So now I’m using washable pads because I’m determined to save the environment. lol

The waste from tampons and pads is astronomical if you add from teenager to menopause!

And the money you spend. It’s a racket

Have you ever bled during a full moon?

I’m not trying to be funny, genuinely curious...wouldn’t every woman at one point bleed during a full moon?

I’m sure I have, but I couldn’t tell you if I’ve noticed anything significant. But I’m curious, how does the lunar cycle influence a woman’s period?

For me, I think I’m fairly lucky, my period is a clean 5 days. My heaviest flow is on the 2nd and 4th which is strange, because the 1st and 3rd days are light—with the 3rd day being like non existent, like I spot, just for it to come full force on the 4th. But then by the 5th day it’s completely gone.

I don’t have any mood swings, I usually just like to nap and lounge around all day. I usually have no appetite either, I guess cuz I feel so bloated that I feel full. My bloat is probably my worst symptom besides cramps.

Oyy how does that work? Free flowing? I can’t even begin to understand how this works, I mean, do you not just pour out everywhere when you walk from idk—your bed to the toilet?

You mention a diva cup, but then you mention your underwear, so I’m assuming you legit mean you free flow without a diva cup and just bleed into your underwear.

But why? And how is that not debilitating?

Truth.

OB tampons used to be cheap as shit, because menses is a time most women don’t wanna stick their fingers up their hoohah. Then they became seen as an environmental alternative, due to the lack of applicator. Damned things skyrocketed. And for what? Each one is still individually wrapped in single use plastic! Greenwashing at it’s finest. 🙄

Man, we’re all synced here. That’s odd haha. Mine also started yesterday. 😂 I’m just trying to avoid the snack box because I always crave salty and sweet things. The pain is always bearable on the first day, then it turns into small labor pains lol. Sigh. I only have it for a few days also, thank you baby Jesus.

I don’t have any go-tos other than Midol on the really bad days- those are my happy pills on the more painful days. After having my second daughter, I’ll have cramps that radiate to my knee caps, it’s so bothersome. I only take it when I’m in the office, if I’m not, I’ll just deal with it and go on with my day.

Lmao’ legit was about to say this. Like all of DXP is on hahaha

This underwear they got is new and improved. I free bleed right onto the absorbing materials. It catches everything especially at night.

Aside from the cramping, I don’t notice the menses

Yes,with the diva cup, you collect and you empty it in toilet or shower. Or even the side of the road if your camping.

Wait, wait, wait! This underwear sounds like a game changer...and it doesn’t smell? It doesn’t feel wet? Basically feels like a maxi pad?

How long can you wear it before needing to change it?

How messy is it when you go to wash it—are you soaking it first, before throwing it in the wash?

My flow is heavy for the first two days and I change the underwear 3 times. Once in the morning, afternoon and right b4 bed.

I have 4 pairs and I just hand wash them on the sink and they dry pretty fast depending on the material. I’ve even popped them in the dryer .

I used to have to change my sheets due to nighttime leaks but with the underwear, I don’t have to. And the gush no longer makes me insecure.

After my period is done, I fully wash in the machine.

I really enjoy the underwear. I brought a spandex pair in Walmart to try and I went to Amazon and they have even bigger variety

Wow, never heard of such a thing. Do you do this solely when you’re inside the house for a day or two, or do you wear them out to work, etc when you’re cycle is happening?

Sounds like they provide a lot of security. What made you decide to try this form of leak protection over pads and tampons? Was it for the environment? Concerns about toxins?

Environment

Costs

Toxins

I gave up the razor around the same time.

I switched from the cup to the underwear because the cup became painful after I stopped having sex.

I never see the feminine hygiene aisle.

Yup I got out in them. Not in like spandex or a tight dress tho lol

when i sync with the moon i'm straight up demonic so i try not to act out on any crazy feels lol
