I couldn’t get tampons to work – I would use a tampon and I would still bleed. When I was 14 and got my period there wasn’t access to internet like there is now and I lived on a farm with just my dad at that point.

Avoid scented soaps and feminine hygiene products. Perfumes in scented hygiene products, such as soaps, pads, and wipes, can irritate the skin and disrupt the pH balance of the vagina.

Theoretically, I could carry two babies at once if I wanted – but it would be hard for my body, so we have had to be careful in that sense. It also contains special structures called Bartholin’s glands. These are two “ pea-sized” glands that sit on either side of the vaginal opening. These glands are responsible for secreting lubrication to keep the vaginal tissues from becoming too dry. Cervix The ovaries are two almond-shaped structures that sit on either side of the uterus, connected to the uterine tubes. They produce oocytes (egg cells), as well as estrogen, progesterone, and other hormones. Egg cell production, or oogenesis, begins with the primordial follicles. As girls reach puberty, each ovary contains thousands of these follicles, and each follicle contains a primary oocyte. When follicles mature, some primary oocytes become secondary oocytes. By the time of ovulation there is only one mature follicle remaining. The rest of the follicles deteriorate. During ovulation (about once a month), the dominant follicle bursts and releases its secondary oocyte. The oocyte travels into the uterine tube, where it can be fertilized. 2. Egg Cells from the Ovaries Move Through the Uterine Tubes The uterus is a pear-shaped muscular organ about the size of a small fist. It’s sometimes called the womb because it’s where a fetus grows during pregnancy. During sexual arousal, the lower part of your uterus lifts toward your belly button. That’s why your vagina gets longer when you’re turned on. It’s called “tenting.”
