A childhood belief about periods

Until I was about 11 I thought when your period came it was similar to defecation. You see when I asked my mother about the subject when my sister got it she said it came out of your hole (i assumed the butt hole of course) and then I asked what it felt like and i'm not sure but i somehow got the impression that you pooped out red pooness for a week straight. It would just keep coming and coming and I was terrified!
