First menstruation

Who has ever done... raise your hands. 🙋‍♀️

At about the age of 10,

I have "first period."

What I heard from you and Grandma is...

"Go hold your mind next to the 3 steps!"

😂 At that time, I was confused.

But if it's this GEN kid... there's hope of laughing at the whole house.

What is... next to the stairs!?

Ancient, he said

"Menstruation will only come for three days," but my... for two weeks 😅 and a lot every day (true story, not!)

It's actually "ancient belief." 🌿

✨ Hold your heart = practice patience.

✨ Step the ladder = Step to youth

✨ a small ceremony for auspiciousness.

It's easy to summarize.

You can do it. It's not dangerous.

It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.

Who's ever been hit like this? Let me tell you. 😂

Next time, I'll tell you about my childhood. 💭

... Read moreเมื่อพูดถึง "ประจำเดือนครั้งแรก" หลายคนอาจจำได้ถึงความตื่นเต้นและความกังวลใจในวัยครั้งแรกที่ได้รับประจำเดือน ในอดีตมีความเชื่อมากมายเกี่ยวกับวิธีจัดการในช่วงนี้ เช่น การ "กลั้นใจถัดบันได 3 ขั้น" ซึ่งถือเป็นพิธีเล็กๆ ที่สื่อถึงการเริ่มก้าวเข้าสู่วัยสาว ช่วยฝึกความอดทนและส่งเสริมความเป็นสิริมงคล อย่างไรก็ตามในทางการแพทย์สมัยใหม่ ประจำเดือนครั้งแรกหรือ "เมนาร์ค" นั้นเป็นสัญญาณบ่งบอกถึงการเริ่มทำงานของระบบสืบพันธุ์ผู้หญิง และเป็นธรรมชาติที่แตกต่างกันในแต่ละคน บางคนอาจมีประจำเดือนมาหนักหรือมานานผิดปกติ ซึ่งหากมีอาการเหล่านี้ ควรปรึกษาแพทย์เพื่อความปลอดภัย ส่วนพิธีกรรมโบราณดังกล่าว แม้ว่าจะไม่มีหลักฐานทางวิทยาศาสตร์รับรอง แต่ก็สร้างความรู้สึกและความทรงจำที่ดีในวัยเยาว์ นอกจากนี้ยังสะท้อนถึงวัฒนธรรมและค่านิยมไทยที่เกี่ยวข้องกับการเติบโตของเด็กผู้หญิง การที่ครอบครัวมีวิธีบอกเล่าเรื่องนี้อย่างอบอุ่น ก็ช่วยให้เด็กสาวรู้สึกพร้อมและมั่นใจมากขึ้น สำหรับวัยรุ่นยุคใหม่ การเรียนรู้เกี่ยวกับร่างกายตัวเองและการดูแลสุขภาพในช่วงมีประจำเดือนเป็นสิ่งสำคัญ ทั้งเรื่องการใช้ผ้าอนามัย การรักษาความสะอาด และเข้าใจอาการผิดปกติ นอกจากนี้ การเปิดรับความรู้ทางวิทยาศาสตร์ร่วมกับการเคารพในวัฒนธรรม ทำให้การเข้าสู่วัยสาวเป็นเรื่องง่ายและไม่เครียด สุดท้ายแล้วไม่ว่าจะเลือกปฏิบัติตามความเชื่อโบราณหรือวิทยาศาสตร์ก็ไม่มีผิดหรือถูก เพราะประจำเดือนเป็นเรื่องธรรมชาติของร่างกายผู้หญิง เราควรให้ความสำคัญกับความรู้และการดูแลตัวเองควบคู่กันไป และหากมีคำถามหรือประสบการณ์ อย่าลังเลที่จะแชร์กับคนรอบข้าง เพื่อสร้างความเข้าใจและการสนับสนุนกันในวัยสาวด้วยกัน

How long can you go without eating?
And when you finally have a meal, what is it? The key difference between starving and fasting is what you choose to eat when you finally have a meal. Many think fasting means eating less, but it’s really about eating what’s required (and sometimes more). You’re only spacing your meals out to al
