Ain’t nothing like going to class on your period. I’m in college it’s like the second day of classes for my Tuesdays and Thursdays class. Any tips for gynecologist appointments so I can get like a school note because I pass out, throw up and bleed heavily

this is going to vary school to school so it might be more helpful to ask ur schools page :/ and maybe consider a form of birth control? getting on the pill substantially lightened my flow and decreased my pain, it might be able to help u too

I’d be more inclined to talk to the gyno about resolving those symptoms rather than putting your life on pause every time. Periods should never be that bad. Have you ever spoken to a gyno about it?

Yes I have talked to a gynecologist about it I’m on birth control for my heavy periods they do help sometimes but may have to be put on a different form of bc.

Yeah definitely switch if this method isn’t doing what you need it to! You may also want to explore menstrual suppression (using birth control to safely stop periods entirely).
