So if u do cheer and u have ur period and ur coach gives you a black uniform will the blood come through and will it hurt that u have to go home and can u go to the doctor for ur period or no

You can definitely do cheer on your period, a black uniform is great for hiding accidental spots, and you can 100% see a doctor if your period hurts or feels like too much.

Black uniforms are basically the best thing for cheer because even if a tiny leak happens, nobody can tell. To keep blood from coming through, you just want the right period product for you and a fresh change before practice starts.

Products for cheer

• Pads: great and easy to use. Change your pad every 4 to 6 hours, sooner on heavy days.
• Period underwear: looks and feels like regular underwear, fits nicely under cheer bloomers, and works on its own or as a back-up with a pad so nothing leaks onto your uniform.

Cramps and cheer

You can do cheer, and taking it easy when you don't feel well is fine. If cramps are bad enough to stop you, tell a grown-up so a doctor can check: that's not something to push through. There are medicines that help period pain, and a grown-up decides if you take one, which one and how much, for your age and weight. They tend to work best when a grown-up starts them as soon as cramps begin and keeps them going for the first two or three days. A heat pad, or a hot water bottle wrapped in a towel that a grown-up fills, can help too, and in a few small studies heat worked about as well as medicine.

Going to the doctor

Yes, people go to doctors for periods all the time. Tell a grown-up if the pain stops you doing normal things like school, doesn't get better with the pain relief a grown-up gives you, or keeps getting worse from one period to the next. Also tell a grown-up if you need a new pad or tampon every 1 to 2 hours, your period lasts more than 7 days, you pass clots bigger than about 2.5 cm, blood leaks through to your clothes or bed, you miss normal things because of your period, or you feel tired or out of breath a lot. A grown-up can book an appointment and a doctor can check things out.
