Menstrual Hygiene Day 2021

 So today is all about the menses!

My first time story

So I was in boarding school

deep in western kenya...

(ok thats how i felt..its actually not so far from town)

but i digress

anyways

we had been given this large pads by my mum

and when the menses came

thats what we used

however, the challenge of boarding school

is that the dorms are locked during the day

so if u didn't jipanga

then wololo

you may not have enough pads for the day

mercifully the periods were not painful when they started

i was in class 7 (i think)

when i started my menses

years later in high school

they became more painful

but i had painkillers for that

in campus the pain became UNBEARABLE

i remember rolling on the floor

and 3-4 hours later and am good!!

i think i ovedosed on painkillers

GOSH!!

BUT they were like clockwork...

28 days!

the worst was when doing my MBA

my ps started just before the economics paper

i was not myself!

i was in such pain! because if i dont take painkiller before the pain

then no painkiller would work

I actually just wrote my name

answered one question

and left 

I had to resit that paper!

that was a first in my life! a RESIT!!

waaaaaaa

now the ps come when they want

and am ok with that...

eish...the things women go through!!
