Whoever came up with “you only lose 2 tablespoons of blood while menstruating” must have been a guy because I lose enough blood each month to fill a coffee mug. I know that it isn’t straight blood that comes out and the 2 tsp. is only referring to straight undiluted blood but the blood component is sooooo much higher for those with heavy periods. I’m 17 and I bleed through an ultra tampon in less than 2 hours for 7 days straight. Miss me with that bs 😡
