When I was 11, I went to the bathroom, looked at my panties which I didn't do much and saw some brownish stuff. I didn't think it was my period cuz it was brown, so I thought, I pooped myself! But wait, it wasn't by my butt, more where my vagina was so I thought, OH NO! I've got an infection! Now I've got to stick that pill up my ass! (THOSE THINGS YOU USE WHEN YOU HAVE A YEAST INFECTION) so I called my friend, she pretended not to know but I knew she had her period but she didn't tell me so I had to tell her mom cuz mine was at work and when I find out its not poop or an infection I'm like, this is brown. I got an ugly period!
