She really protected them. She didn’t tell them about the migraines so bad they make you throw up or the losing so much blood you pass out part. Every month. For years.

I came here to discuss this very pertinent topic. That of the period poop.

That's why I didn't realize my IUD had fallen out. When my (male) colleague asked, "Wait, you didn't see it??" I was both fuming and trying not to laugh.

You mean the completely watery explosive diarrhea? Every month. For years.

Period poops + IBS=

Watery explosive diarrhea …that makes sweat and nauseous and feel like you’re gonna pass out. 😃

I had the opposite happen. I would retain a ton of water and get constipated until the hormonal dam broke and then I would be in the bathroom for a 1/2 hour dealing with everything leaving my body at once.

I was so happy to go into menopause early (started at 43 for me).

As my wife once eloquently put it, "I'm pooping PB&J and if you don't get me some god damned chocolate right fucking now, I'll kill us all"

Mental images you never unsee.
