Most girls can't predict the exact date when they are going to have their periods. Dealing with an unexpected menstruation can be tough.
During such times, it is important to be calm and focused. You should also know exactly what to do.
Read on to figure how you can handle something like this; these tips can save you when you aren't expecting to get your period.
1. Use toilet paper, napkins, or tissues. This is a great way to deal with this situation. Fold a lot of it neatly to what looks like a long pad, the thicker the better and place it to where you would place a regular pad.
2. Make sure you don't panic, this can make things worse. As soon as you feel liquid or blood dripping down your leg, or you spot some on your pants, don't go freak, or draw attention to it. If you have a sweatshirt, casually tie it around your waist until you can reach a bathroom, or a private place to inspect what has been stained.
3. Tell a trusted adult. If you are lucky, your mother should be the one to tell- not your best friend or brother. If your mother isn't there, still do not blurt it out to your friend until you can find a way to fix the problem. You may have to tell a male. Just tell the closest thing to family that is there at the moment, whether it be your uncle, or dad.
4. Once you have told the adult and get help, people might end up figuring out what happened. Don't be embarrassed. It happens to everyone once in their lifetime. Stand tall and be proud that you handled it the right way.
