How do you bath yourself when you on your period?

Question

My mom says i dont suppose to take showers when im on but it relieve pain and stress so i just wanted to know what yall do

Answer

I usually shower but if my cramps are bad I'll take a bath. Your flow usually stops (for the most part) in water so you're usually fine to just sit there in the bath. And when cramps really hurt I don't care about the blood I just want to feel better.

Answer

Just shower. Or take a bath. Neither one will hurt you or cause issues...

Answer

Ummmm...what?  Why wouldn't you be able to shower/take a bath like usual?

Answer

I am a nurse and I can't think of any reason why a shower would physically harm you during your period. I would say do whichever makes you feel better, you'll be fine.

Answer

I always shower

Why would you not be able to shower...?? That makes no sense at all. Of course you can shower. A little gross if you don't actually.

Answer

Why wouldnt you bathe yourself? Thats just getting dirty by blood and causing more problems for infection. Definitely shower.
