Periods usually last one week, make sure to keep a tampon or pad in your bag at all times during this time. If you don’t have any, ask the nurse or your friends for a tampon or pad.
When you get your period during sports it might cause you to be extra tired and have low-quality performances. This process has symptoms such as pain and cramps, which challenges performance during training and competition. If you start getting stomache cramps, it is ok to take a day off.
