Let's talk about periods. ➿ Let's talk about the stigma associated with being fat and getting medical attention. ➿ I started my period when I was ten years old, ever since than I have not been regular. I would go a few months having my period thinking finally I am regular but than I would go another few months with nothing. I have started tracking my period on an app called Flo. I have told my doctor many times that my period is irregular but has she ever done anything? No she hasn't, why is this? Maybe cause I am fat, always have been since I was young. I have had issues with weight due to medical reasons. ➿ I have taken this in to my own hands. I will track my period and bring it all to the doctor and show them than maybe they will do something when they see how irregular I am after having my period for 8 years. ➿ The stigma associated with being fat and getting medical attention needs to stop. Stop telling people that if they loose weight their issues will stop, I have been told that before and come to find out I had an auto immune disease that was tearing my body apart. ➿ #stopthestigma #stopfatshaming #stopfatphobia #stopdiscrimination #stopdiscriminating #menstruation #period #irregular
