Question and answer

QUESTION What if I get my period and I’m at school without any protection?
ANSWER You can always ask a friend if they have a pad or a tampon or go to the school nurse or a teacher. Most schools hold spares, just in case. In the meantime, a folded piece of tissue or toilet paper placed in your underwear will often get you through. If you know you are expecting your period, why not use a Libra Extra Thin liner just to be sure? Remember to have some Libra girl regular pads in your schoolbag just in case. Wearing a liner can be good on days when you think you might get your period.

Milliemac3 Don't worry I got my period at school and I didn't want to ask a teacher so I told my best friend and because she is really open about it she told a year 8 girl that she had her period and needed to borrow one and got me a pad. If you don't want to tell a teacher just let a friend know and they will be happy to help you. ❤️

shannondoherty most of the time lady teachers have them since they get their period too. never be afraid to ask:) it would be a good idea to keep some pads or tampons in your bags :)
