No, unless she asks for something. She doesn’t get moody and she never complains.

Ahahah I think I love you... this thread is so ridiculous
You know, I feel like a lot of people like you two are being ridiculous. Most people on this thread are being ridiculous.
I think some women have really uneventful periods and so can't really relate, but like, I get TERRIBLE cramps when I have my period. And of course my husband knows, because we don't do anything intimate during that time so it comes up. But I mean, its not like he treats me differently but he absolutely sees that I'm in pain, helps pick up some of my chores, orders pizza, that kind of stuff. Extra care doesn't have to mean a big lift, it just has to mean like, showing that you understand that your partner is going through something kind of unpleasant and showing a modicum of compassion about it.
For many women periods suck, and IMO the least sympathetic people to this aren't men, its other women who have milder periods.
If you take birth control you can avoid this.
I'm over 35 and don't want the added health risks that come with continuing birth control. But than you for womansplaining periods to me. Like I said upthread, the worst people to talk to about difficult periods are other women who don't experience them, not men.

No, I think it’s ridiculous that men have to treat women differently when they are on their periods... of course if you are in pain, sick, depressed, etc. your significant other should try to help out. Having your period or not has nothing to do with it because (like you said) many women have no real issues.
I hate it, but it does not cause me pain so why should my husband treat me differently?
I don't think he should 'treat me differently' if 'differently' means that he acts like I'm slow or feeble while I'm on my period. Showing some consideration for the fact that I'm feeling a little off/under the weather because of it? Absolutely, as I do when he feels bad.
I also would not expect anyone at work or anything to treat me differently. But my spouse is someone who cares about how I'm feeling. My spouse treats me differently int he sense that he's a little extra caring and helpful even if I am just grumpy for no good reason, and I do the same. Having a spouse who loves me means I don't have to go around suffering in silence so no one thinks I'm weak. He knows I'm a strong and capable woman and he treats me accordingly. He also loves me and cares about my well being so treats me accordingly on that front as well.

Just to add that the title of the thread is: “does your husband give you extr care when you are on your period?” Why should he?
If the thread said “does your husband give you extra care when you are in pain and suffering” my answer would be “absolutely!”

They are a very normal part of life. That doesn't mean that for many many MANY women they are an uncomfortable part of life. Something can be normal and painful.
As I said upthread, showing concern, maybe buying her a chocolate bar (or whatever), loading the dishwasher went you might not otherwise. It doesn't have to be a lot, but plenty of women feel crappy during their period and shouldn't be made to act like its all NBD. Erasing periods and their symptoms is as misogynistic IMO as saying a woman can't do a job or something because of a period.

This is so true! I posted about my need for a uterine ablation. It really gave me back a quality of life that I lost for three years. But I had to fight to get it. Three different female GYNs thought it was fine that I was bleeding through a super tampon and an overnight pad in under 90 min. I was teaching full-time then so I had no ability to just change my protection that often. My principal was sympathetic only after I bled through during high-stakes testing because we only got a break every two hours. I only got the ablation after testing anemic for a long period after iron therapy.

Really?? Do you have kids? Cuz if he's grossed out by periods, then he's in for a real treat in the delivery room not to mention all of the poop, pee, vomit, spit up, snot, and blood that comes with having kids.
