Okay ladies.. so we're going on day three of the period from hell. I'm going through a SUPER PLUS ( which I have NEVER used in my life ) tampon every hour to every two.. Cramps aren't HORRIBLE but they are always persistent. I have to take motrin every 6 hours to help.. and even then it;s only a little. I'm so miserable.. and this blood is the worst thing I've ever seen in my life.

There hasn't been any clots.. just an endless bloody tsunami. crying

Should I call and talk to an advice nurse? I can't really just make an appointment.. military bases are over flooded with people, and I'd be lucky if I get seen within a week.. so my only option would be to go to the ER.. but I'm not sure if I should be that concerned..

I woke up this morning and it wasn't too bad, so I used a regular tampon, and it was completely absorbed within 30 minutes.

This is just horrible. My poor husband to.. anyway.. I'm so sorry that this is so gross.. I just am so confused and miserable that I don't know where to go to

Halp.

I personally wouldn't worry too much about it unless you go past 7 days. The cramps actually lend credence to the idea that it is purely menstrual rather than something else. I don't think there's much to do but ride it out. I hold it eases up for you soon.
