Is calling into work one time because of a period a valid excuse?

Question

Answer

Absolutely if you have symptoms that cause you to not be able to function normally. Heavy heavy bleeding, extreme pain and fatigue etc. Not all women have easy periods. Also you don't have to disclose why you call into work, you can just say it's for medical reasons. If you require a doctor's note make a visit to your gynecologist if you have severe menstrual symptoms and they can give you a note.

Answer

I mean yes but your boss probably wont see it that way id just say i was throwing up and probably ate something bad

Answer

I wouldn't do it unless I absolutely had to...if it just some little cramps, I'm grouchy, & tired I'll still go

Answer

If it's anything like my heavy periods requiring meds to make the blood clot so I don't need transfusions then yes I'd say it's a reasonable reason. When my periods weren't like they are now after tubal removal, I'd still go to work on my period but I was on bc then so my periods were super light as opposed to now! Use your judgement, only you know what's best for you in your particular situation.
