WHAT'S A PERIOD?

Bei den ersten paar Perioden gibt es viel zu tun. Unvorhersehbare Zyklen. Neue Gefühle. Peinliche Gespräche über Körper und Babys. Schmerzen. Pickel. ~Tief durchatmen~. Wir helfen dir, dich zurechtzufinden. Deine Periode beginnt, wenn sich etwas Blut und Gebärmutterschleimhaut ablöst und durch die Vagina aus deinem Körper austritt. Die Periode ist ein natürlicher, normaler und gesunder Teil des Lebens. Sie ist nichts, wofür du dich schämen oder peinlich berührt sein musst, und sie sollte dich nicht beim Sport, Tanzen, bei Übernachtungen, im Schulcamp oder sogar beim Schwimmen (dank Modibodi) behindern.

FAKTEN ÜBER DIE PERIODE, DIE SIE IN DER SCHULE NICHT GELERNT HABEN:

It’s normal for your first few periods to be heavier or irregular

They should become more consistent over time. Most people bleed for 4 to 7 days each cycle.


Menstrual blood can come 
in all sorts of colours

From pink and bright red to brown, dark red or even black. Blood colour can change during your cycle.


Extreme period pain is NOT normal.

You may feel some cramps and mood swings, but extreme period pain could be a sign of a deeper issue.


It’s all about finding what works best for you.

There’s a lot of variety out there when choosing period products. Our range of period underwear is a great place to start.


It's not magic (but it's close)

Fragen? Wir haben die Antworten:

While the most common age to get your period is around 12-and-a-half, some may get it at 9, others at 16. So, if you get your period earlier or later than your friends, fear not. 

A period typically lasts for 4-7 days. This can be a bit irregular when your period first starts. But fear not, things usually settle down after a year or two. By then, you’ll have a good idea of what’s ‘normal’ for your body. If something doesn’t feel right, let your doctor know.

You can expect blood, just not as much as you may think. The average amount of blood that will come from your vagina during an entire period is only 3-4 tablespoons. Most of this happens in the first couple days of a cycle and gets lighter towards the end.
