Gym and period?

Question

This maybe a stupid question but how do you ladies go to the gym when your on your period?
I have heavy periods but don’t want to keep having a week off for monthlies. It’s already hard to go when I have the kids so it’s even harder when im on.

Answer

Why do you feel like you can’t go to the gym while on your period? Cramps, fatigue or something else?
In my experience working out helps me feel better. It alleviates cramps and helps give me more energy.

Answer

I bought a cup but I can’t get it in, might need some practice as I’m a newbie to them. 
I managed to go yesterday wearing a tampon and pad. Was ok but kept being paranoid I was leaking so came home.

Answer

Shove my cup up there and go lol. Working out makes my cramps feel worse but I try to do it anyway. Usually not my best workout but I figure trying is better than not.

Answer

Since getting off BC my periods have been a tad heavier but I still go. I get what you mean thought it’s awkward when you’re exercising and feel your period but on those days I wear sweat pants. Otherwise the gym helps me with my cramps and bloating.

Answer

No symptoms really just that I’m so heavy, I have to change my pad every hour so I don’t want to leak while I’m there. Usually for the first 4 days I’m like it.
