Share your first menstrual stories.
My first period occurred during a family vacation. I was on the beach with my family when I noticed something was off. I felt a bit of pain and some wetness. I was so embarrassed because I was in a bathing suit. I quickly ran to the bathroom at a nearby café.

It was really inconvenient and a bit of an awkward situation, but now I look back and laugh at how flustered I was.
