Long Winded Post

This morning before I got out of bed, I masturbated and when I was done, I had blood on my hand. What a wonderful way to find out I've started my period. :-) I didn't really think a lot about it. I had a lot of blood on my fingers, but I'd been messing around the outside of my vagina, so it seemed all normal. Which, I started while I was masturbating, because before I began, I checked to see I came up clean (a habit that began when masturbating at the end of my period, actually).

When I went to the bathroom right after, I wiped and I had very little blood on the toilet paper. As opposed to putting in a tampon (in fear of being light and drying out my vagina), I wore a pantyliner and I'd check it at work and if I started to get heavier, I'd put in a tampon.

(Gah, I want a Keeper or a DivaCup, so I could put it in and not worry about drying, but that's another post)

So I went all day and I had a little streak of blood on the pantyliner. Right now I'm going without any protection whatsover, and I'm hardly bleeding at all.

Last month, I had this where I went light for three days and had two days of absolute hell, followed by two more days of light. Which, my period has not always been regular, but it has ALWAYS been only five days. I've never, even when I was on BC, had a period longer or shorter than five days. I'm afraid I'm going to run into this again this month, but as it is, I'm confused on why I had this burst of blood this morning, and then hardly anything for the rest of the day.

Any thoughts?

It could've been because you were sleeping before you masturbated so the blood collected while you were asleep. Gravity and all that.

yea ^ what she said :) and i find that when i'm aroused during my period i gush lots of blood (that's mixed with vaginal juices of course) because of the muscles working themselves encourages the vagina's self-cleansing/propellant system :-p that sounds technical!
