Thank you for reminding ladies that it’s good to pay attention to what comes out of you! Education is a key to health. 14 years ago my period discharge began to look strange to me. Pieces of tissue mixed in with watery blood that was a funny pink. I went to my Gynecologist who said it was good that I noticed. I had stage 1 endometrial cancer. Had surgery. That took care of it. Hurray. Thanks again.

I’m an OBGYN ultrasound tech and I wish all my patients could see this. Can’t tell you how many patients we get for ultrasound bc of the period being a different color or consistency or pausing for a day then ending brown or starting brown. Even before becoming a tech I had this and always instinctively knew it was normal. Just made sense. When blood is exposed to the air it turns brown. I never once worried about it or went to the doctor for it. But sooooo many women do! I’m glad to see channels like this educating women.

[@KristinaAlieva-c6p]

[@joyceogwe3272]

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! This conversation should totally be had in my country, Kenya. There's a lot of period stigma and putting the conversation on the table has been so hard - the stigma is so much so that many young girls drop out of school out of embarrassment and period poverty, like, they cannot afford pads or relevant alternatives consistently, (in one extreme case in mid 2022, a 14yo committed suicide because boys and male teachers in her school saw a stain on her dress, she ran home and hung herself leaving a note that she couldn't go back to that school cos she can't face her peers as they saw her blood!) Some in the rural are so misinformed by culture, they believe they should get married when they first see their menstrual period as they are now 'full women', and they actually drop out of school to get married. Feb 2023, a female legislator (Member of Parliament) literally had to get dramatic and go to parliament in "stained" white trouser suit, somewhat picketing in a silent way, just to make a point and bring the conversation to the table... Even then, her female counterparts (especially), as well as the male, castigated her and I was shocked! I am loving every bit of this discussion and looking forward to more.❤️ Following from Kenya.

I haven't had my period for months now, i went to see the gynae and he gave me primolut to take for a couplr of days and it came. After that, i never saw my period again. Just this week, i noticed my period is coming, but it's not the usual. It's brown and clothy and just in tiny bits since i started to now (day 4) . What do i do?

[@HeroineC]

​@@rebeccawhenton1777since it has started coming (after the months break) you can just watch it, see how many days it'll flow. Record what you notice. Calculate the flow date for the next month, and see if it flows again. If "all things are equal", then you know your period has returned for good I guess 🤷‍♂️❤

[@AshleysTarotCorner]

So I don’t know if the Dr herself will see this or not but I wanted to let her know just how much I feel she’s helping not only myself but others like me. My mother was not one to explain my body or how it worked. I’m a month shy of my 34th birthday and only just a few months ago learned why I “couldn’t” urinate with a tampon in….. I’m too well endowed and need adjusting. As a grown woman asking questions that many children know the answer to, it’s embarrassing to the point I just don’t ask. Google doesn’t give the kind of answers that are actually helpful and I feel lost. In just 4 videos you’ve taught me more than my 33 years and lifetime of education and doctor visits taught me. I can’t thank you enough.

Re: Purple stains on menstrual pads, it could be "leakage" from the urethra after having eaten red beets in the days prior. I had slight yellow "leakage" a long time ago on my menstrual pads, before I started doing exercises to strengthen my pelvic floor. And after I ate red beets for two days in a row, both my urine and my stools turned dark purple for a few days. If you put both together... Of course it wouldl be rare!

My periods are regular though just painful and I do see these clots alot. Lately I experience this intense fever before my periods starts it's not easy, it's like when one has Malaria the fever is intense. Should I get concerned? I have a question too, what causes painful ovulation and how can I stop it because pain blocks don't work for me. It's just too much😭😭 sometimes I can't even move my legs then after that egg white like fluid comes out I get a relief ☺️

Painful period could be caused by ovarian cyst or endometriosis. I used to experience painful periods that would result to me vomiting, feeling feverish, stooling, migraine and not feeling my legs. I suffered it for years before going for a pelvic ultra sound scan that showed I had ovarian cyst. I saw a gynaecologist afterwards. The rest is history. I suggest you go to a diagnostic center and do an ultrasound scan.

You are right to ask this bc Periods are not supposed to be painful. While painful periods are common, it is a sign that something is off balance, either in your hormone balance or gut health (which can effect reproductive system). I took a nutritionist who specializes in women's hormones and changed my diet, started taking supplements and cycle syncing, and I can say that my PMS and period symptoms have decreased tremendously. It's amazing how everything is connected.

Thanks Doc! I did a DNC and polyps removal in May. Since then my period flows heavy for only 2 days without cramps and clears on the 3rd day. Is this normal?
