For others, Aunt Flow may show up totally unannounced.

Long story short: your period is 100% normal and nothing to fear. In fact, billions of women have gone before you \u2013 just think of it like a very big, very awesome girls club. Getting your period is just one step among many along the road to becoming a full blown adult. And being an adult is pretty cool. Still, any visitor showing up unannounced has the power to make us feel a little bit uneasy.

The key is to talk to someone who is old enough to understand the process your body is going through.

It\u2019s better to seek out a trusted advisor that is more well versed in the process, or able to easily access the answers.[\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;2.

When Aunt Flow arrives, you can expect her to stick around for 2-7 days. It may seem like a lot of blood at first, but in reality, most people don\u2019t lose more than 6 tablespoons of blood during that time frame. Most ladies will bleed more on the first day or so of their period, with their flow starting to lighten as the period nears its end. Your blood may be red, pink, or brown, and the colors may vary slightly period to period and day to day. As far as symptoms go, you may experience some slight abdominal cramping, bloating, fatigue, or headaches. Contrary to popular belief, periods are not meant to be painful. In fact, if you are experiencing extreme levels of pain, it is a good idea to make an appointment with your doctor. If you find yourself wondering what\u2019s normal and what\u2019s not, be sure to reach out to your trusted adult and ask them.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text module_class=&#8221;blog-heading-style1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243;]In conclusion:[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.11&#8243;]You\u2019re pretty powerful, you know that?!

Just kidding! We are super-de-duper into it! Being prepared has the power to transform fear into knowledge, anxiety into empowerment, and overwhelm into ease. Long story short: your period is 100% normal and nothing to fear. In fact, billions of women have gone before you - just think of it like a very big, very awesome girls club. Getting your period is just one step among many along the road to becoming a full blown adult. And being an adult is pretty cool.\n\nStill, any visitor showing up unannounced has the power to make us feel a little bit uneasy. So it only makes sense that when left unprepared, Aunt Flow can be a little difficult to embrace right away.

When Aunt Flow arrives, you can expect her to stick around for 2-7 days. It may seem like a lot of blood at first, but in reality, most people don\u2019t lose more than 6 tablespoons of blood during that time frame. Most ladies will bleed more on the first day or so of their period, with their flow starting to lighten as the period nears its end.\n\nYour blood may be red, pink, or brown, and the colors may vary slightly period to period and day to day. As far as symptoms go, you may experience some slight abdominal cramping, bloating, fatigue, or headaches. Contrary to popular belief, periods are not meant to be painful. In fact, if you are experiencing extreme levels of pain, it is a good idea to make an appointment with your doctor.\n\nIf you find yourself wondering what\u2019s normal and what\u2019s not, be sure to reach out to your trusted adult and ask them.\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<style><\/style>\n<div class=\"pbuilder_row pbuilder_row_id_16\" data-rowtype=\"0\" data-rowid=\"16\">\n<div class=\"pbuilder_row_colwrapper\" style=\"padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\">\n<div class=\"pbuilder_column pbuilder_column-1-1\" data-colnumber=\"0\">\n<div class=\"pbuilder_column_background\" style=\"border: none;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\" pbuilder_column_inner pbuilder_droppable\">\n<div class=\"pbuilder_module\" data-shortcode=\"heading\" data-modid=\"34\"><style type=\"text\/css\" scoped=\"scoped\">\n    #frb_h_1395301524, #frb_h_1395301524 *{font-family: default, serif; font-style:normal; font-weight:400; }<br \/>\n    #frb_h_1395301524 b,#frb_h_1395301524 strong{font-weight:600 !important;}<br \/>\n    #frb_h_1395301524{margin:0px 0px 36px 0px;padding:20px 0px 0px 0px;border:none;}<br \/>\n    #frb_h_1395301524 a{color: #75c043;}<br \/>\n    #frb_h_1395301524 a:hover{color: #75c043;}<br \/>\n\t<\/style> <style type=\"text\/css\" scoped=\"scoped\">#frb_h_1395301524.frb_onScreen.frb_animated {-webkit-animation-duration: 1000ms; animation-duration: 1000ms;}#frb_h_1395301524.frb_onScreen.frb_hinge {-webkit-animation-duration: 2000ms; animation-duration: 2000ms;}<\/style>\n<h2 id=\"frb_h_1395301524\" class=\"\" style=\"text-align: left; color: #75c043;\">In conclusion:<\/h2>\n<style>@media only screen and (max-width : 768px) {<br \/>\n    #frb_h_1395301524{font-size:26px !important;}<br \/>\n    #frb_h_1395301524 .frb_button_icon{font-size:26px !important;}<\/p>\n<p>  }<\/style><\/div>\n<div class=\"pbuilder_module\" data-shortcode=\"text\" data-modid=\"35\"><style type=\"text\/css\" scoped=\"scoped\">\n    #frb_text_260069617, #frb_text_260069617 *{letter-spacing:0px;}<br \/>\n    #frb_text_260069617 a{color: #333333;}<br \/>\n    #frb_text_260069617 a:hover{color: #333333;}<\/style> <style type=\"text\/css\" scoped=\"scoped\">#frb_text_260069617.frb_onScreen.frb_animated {-webkit-animation-duration: 1000ms; animation-duration: 1000ms;}#frb_text_260069617.frb_onScreen.frb_hinge {-webkit-animation-duration: 2000ms; animation-duration: 2000ms;}<\/style>\n<div id=\"frb_text_260069617\" class=\"\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 36px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; border: none; text-align: left;\">\n<div class=\"frb_text\" style=\"color: #333333;\">You\u2019re pretty powerful, you know that?!
