I don’t travel but plan to start soon with my husband and kids.
The thing that I wonder about is how women can enjoy holidays with their period? I guess if you’re super regular maybe you could schedule holidays to avoid that date? Or you don’t care if you get your period? Or you’re on bc that stops your period?
I don’t use any hormonal bc, only copper iud. I have taken the period delay tablets 1 time last year for a short trip and it made me soooo moody! I have irregular cycles so I would not ever be able to schedule a holiday around my period. But if I was in the week prior to my period or the week of my period on holiday, it would ruin it for me completely.
That sounds dramatic, but I’m serious. What do you do?

I’ve never let a period stop me travelling and having fun. I just pack supplies and see what happens. My periods are mid flow and regular but they’ve never been an issue.
