Are sports and menstruation compatible?

The answer is yes.

Of course, it's perfectly normal to want to stay in bed and rest!

There's only one thing to do then: choose a sport that you'll enjoy doing at each time of the month.

So if it's compatible, can I swim during my period?

Among the myths that still surround sports and menstruation, you probably often hear your friends say that you can't swim or do water sports during your period. Know that this is false! With the right menstrual protection, you won't risk leaks. What's more, the massage provided by the water is ideal for relieving bloating and abdominal cramps.

Sport and menstruation: choosing the right activity and sanitary protection

While you can exercise during your period, even if it's painful, it may be worth adapting your activity to your physical abilities. You can focus on gentle, endurance sports rather than combat sports in cases of intense pain or fatigue.
Walking, swimming, stretching and yoga will therefore be sports to favor.

When practicing a sport, in terms of protection, the cup or menstrual panties are the most widely used protections today. Since flow can be heavier during sports, these types of protection ensure perfect absorption without the risk of leakage, even during the most extensive movements.

Today, to help you feel even more free and stop thinking about your period while playing sports, Haomah invites you to come and change the rules of the game!
