Today, I found out that I puke and then pass out at the sight of blood. I am a 16 year old girl expecting hundreds of periods to come. FML

Same thing different taste
Tis the season to be jolly
Today, at the ripe age of 20, I spent the early hours of my morning violently vomiting blood every time I got too warm. I then had the pleasure of shitting in a plastic container for a stool sample, due to said problem, after one and half hours of sleep. FML
Today, I fainted in the lunch line at school due to extreme period cramps, and ended up having to get seven stitches on my face. This is the third time I've fainted because of my period this year. FML
Make it stop!
Today, I got diagnosed with stomach ulcers. They are very painful, and I have been throwing up blood. On my latest trip to the toilet, I was heaving and the pain was making me beat the floor with my fist, the toilet lid decided to come crashing down on my head, giving me a minor concussion. FML
Today, I was leaving school to get tested for peptic ulcers, because my stomach has been hurting for a few months. To wish me luck, one of my friends gave me a friendly punch in the stomach. I threw up blood. FML
Today, I had to go through the embarrassment and pain of telling my parents I was pregnant. I took the test and it came out positive and I was freaking out. I got grounded for the rest of the year and they're really disappointed in me. Five minutes ago, I got my period. FML
Today, I got my period at school. I didn't notice until a boy asked me if I'd killed someone in my pants. FML
Panic!
Today, I told my boyfriend that I've missed my period, and that I think I might be pregnant. He started panicking and ended up puking in the toilet. FML
Today, I found my daughter sobbing and trying to stick a wad of gauze to her vagina. She was having her first period. FML
NOT NOW!
Today, after I went in for surgery, I came out of extremely anemic from blood loss. As soon as I got home, I started my period. FML
Leaking from everywhere
Today, I woke up bleeding from every orifice in my body. I've got a nose bleed from my medication, my gums bled when I brushed my teeth, I'm on my period, and I have hemorrhoids. FML

I found out at about that age that i pass out at the sight of blood by closely watching my friend get her blood drawn, interested. then i hit the floor, recovered, and hit the floor again. so it's not a FEAR necessarily. it can be an uncontrollable physiological reaction. although period does have a lot of blood, i don't get it from that. (yeah, its uterine lining PLUS a lot of BLOOD to those saying its not.)

Seriously.. if you haven't gotten your period at 16 years old, you might wanna think about seeing a doctor. That's WAAAAAY late for aunt flo to come by. If you want to be able to have children one day, I'd say you definitely need to get checked out.. one has quite a bit to do with the other...

seriously? who the hell are you to being be giving medical advice? are you a gynecologist? i doubt it because any obgyn would be able to tell you that 16 is NOT "WAAAAAAY late" to be getting your period. in fact, it is perfectly normal for a girl to get their period as early as 8 or 9 and as late as 18 or 19. it has a lot to do with size- petite girls or very skinny girls are likely to get it later. also, genetics. my mom got it when she was 16 and so did i. any gyno would also tell you that when you get your period has NOTHING to do with your ability to bear children in the future unless you are way past the acceptable range of ages. Unless OP plans on having children at 16, she has nothing to worry about. just because the average age is around 12-13 does not make it abnormal to have it at 16. maybe do some research before you spew any more bullshit on the internet.

Theo. You are so ******* dumb. Little blood? And a period is ovaries coming out? More like **** your life and go back to health class.

Oh that's gotta suck. Hundreds to come? Try 400 exactly. And to those of you who say very little blood, it is actually a lot of blood in the Endometrium, along with other nutrients which build up. I agree with some of the other comments, go to a doctor and try to get birth control and only use tampons.

After the first few times of your period you will definitly get over the shock and awe of having your life fall apart for 3-5 days a month. If you have just had your first period there was probably little to no cramping. But damn once those real cramps kick in the bleeding will be the least of your worries. The diarhea, back aches, constant need to pee on top of being out in a public place in complete agony with no sympathy, effing sucks! So your best best to see minimal blood is to start using tampons and for goodness sakes dont use a menstral cup its pretty much a blood resevoir.

3-5 days? Lucky!

Oh my. People are getting really heated about this girl being late to start. & OP: The only bad part about periods is the cramping... for me, it's like being kicked in the stomach with a steel toed boot that's hot as a branding iron. Okay, maybe not quite that extreme. But it sounded good.

Wow. I'm not saying it's bad to get your period at sixteen. Like everyone else said, you can get it until you're like in your twenties or whatever. Personally I got it at eleven or twelve, but some of my friend's haven't had it yet either, and I'm fifteen. No, the thing that weirded me out about this post, is how can you have never seen blood before at sixteen years old? When I was a kid, I ran around and scraped myself all the freaking day. It got to the point where I just looked down and said "Oh. I'm bleeding. Where did THAT one come from?" But yeah, just try not to look at it. Wear Tampons so you only have to see it a little bit. Wearing pads used to freak me the hell out. The worst part, definitely is the cramps. I'm on my period now, and I've been lying in bed all day, barely able to move. But who knows? Maybe it's worse on some people than others...

u gotta be careful with tampons tho... they do carry health risks and can 'pop the cherry'...

No, they can't 'pop the cherry'. At least not if used properly, usually. Whilst the cherry can be popped with various non sexual activities fairly easily (bike riding, horse riding, etc) a tampon is not one of those. It's far too small, especially considering that sometimes cherries are not even popped during sex (and a penis is usually a fair bit bigger than a tampon :P ).
