I've never taken a sick day because of a period.
Until 9 months ago.
I never had cramps/bleeding/anything until a few years ago. I think my hormones changed after giving birth. Slowly periods have gotten worse and I've started having cramps, horrible cramps.
I decided to start back on the pill, which I hate because it eliminates my sex drive and makes me bitchy. The first month was great, less bleeding/cramping. The second month - wow. Without warning - no cramps or anything, as I stood at my desk talking with my coworker, I suddenly felt a warm rush down my legs, and thought I had somehow managed to lose control of my bladder and had pissed myself.
Then I looked down and saw the blood running down both legs. goddam ruined my practically new heels. My uterus had apparently collected 17 quarts of blood and was pushing it suddenly out of my bagina. I was clotting and bleeding and gushing.
Scared the living shit out of me. I used to think that all the chicks who stayed home from school or work were a bunch of whiny ass bitches who just wanted to take a day off.
