    I do what I can during my period. I get really symptomatic and at times have trouble even getting out of bed - so exercising is out of the question for about the first 3 days. It does help with the cramps - but it's finding the energy to do it that I struggle with. However, I have found that if I am exercising regularly the rest of the month, that week isn't as bad for me (still not normal, but not as bad as it could be).

    No pads here! I hate the feeling of sitting in a sloshy diaper. I use a cup. divacup.com *angels singing*

    Diva cup is awesome.

    of course. the only problem I can think of...its been a while.....is if youre having a heavy flow day and it gets, um, unexpectedly messy. Other than that, go for it. Probably helpful for cramps, too.

    Injurys? what like your uterus falling out? No seriously what the hell?

    I exercise on all days of my period and I have a goddamn civil war in there when I have my period.

    LOL civil war, that's funny! I just meant like maybe pulling a muscle or exerting myself too hard during a time when I'm losing so much blood.

    Losing so much blood? It's your period not a stab wound. Your period isn't a valid reason to not exercise and it doesn't make you more likely to injure anything. You might have to change your pad more but stained laundry will be the worst of it.
