Periods and all things related

[bogwoppit]

We have decided to create a thread, similar to the nutrition thread, to gather together any useful links and articles about periods and all things related.
In future posters will be directed to the thread, hopefully the thread will be very informative and a great reference for parents, gymnasts and coaches.

Please PM me your links and I will put them into a stickied thread. Once the thread is established further links can be added at any time, but we would like to be able to check them out first.

Love the idea!
Can you include a section about the appropriate undergarments as well? I see those questions come up frequently as well and would fit nicely here.
Thanks!!!

We can definitely make that a part of the stickied thread.

Just submit your links or even write about what works for your DD and I can put it all into one great big girls thread. Searching is not always as effective as we'd like it to be, this way all the wisdom can be all in one easy to find place.

Feel free to send links to CB threads that you have found useful as well. I know there are some gems that would be very helpful.

Good idea - I am sure many gymmies will find this thread useful and it may help open up discussion between the girl and her parent

Great idea Bog, you are the period QUEEN! I'll be sure to point DD in that direction in a couple years!!!

Thank you Bog! Such an awkward topic for a guy to have to read about, so I'm glad we won't have anymore threads.

Yup, this way we can all learn and no one will have to ask those questions anymore. This is safer and more private.

If anyone has any links please send them on. I am still looking for some more gym related ones!
