Ravenclaw @legere-librum - Tumblr Blog

it’s always strange to stumble onto those people who never evolved past the tumblr social justice of six years ago, whose top priority remains figuring out which TV shows or celebrities are Moral or Immoral. Somebody has to sit them down and tell them we’ve all moved on to more useful stuff, like communism

What’s so bad about periods

At first I was like “no don’t reblog it’ll weird people out” then I was like “oh right that’s the point”

You also lose iron during menstruation. I actually passed out because of that yesterday.

Also shout out to all trans, gender-fluid or genderless people with menstruation out there! Periods don’t make you female. Only you define your gender!

Actually there is a good chance that is not the lack of iron making you pass out but instead drops on blood pressure!

I found this out recently. I’ve always been told my fainting/dizzy spells during my period were iron related but I did some research and because I have a history of low blood pressure and fainting related to it (in times of a restricted diet and pregnancy) it’s far more likely that’s the reason I’m fainting

A lot of other AFAB people report the same

I ended up in the hospital due to severe blood loss and needed transfusions to recover

Not to mention the dip in your immune system when you lose that much blood, just because of all the white blood cells pouring out along with the rest of it.

Or the fact that a lot of the painful/severe symptoms associated with periods are actually due to medical problems that need to be addressed, but people don’t know this because no one wants to talk about it and associate most of the symptoms with a fictional version of PMS

That last point is really worth emphasising.

Look, periods suck, but they’re not supposed to suck so much that you’re genuinely incapacitated for days at a time. If you’re literally in agony every month, then that’s a sign there might be something else going on.
