    Default Question about periods and stripping

    I'm sure this has been covered many times also but since I am seriously thinking about getting back into stripping, I want to know. I know that tampons are the only way to go when you have your period, but what about on the days that are the heaviest? In the time period that I danced, I was on the shot which made my periods stop. But I decided to get off of the shot due to my up-and-down weight gain and nausea. And I know that this is way too much info, but since I'm getting my period again, I'm a little worried because my periods are heavy. I heard that some girls don't come in on the days that their period is the heaviest. Can you do that? I wouldn't want to keep running to the bathroom every 30 min just to make sure there isn't any accidents.

    If you work at a club that doesn make you have a set schedule you can take off whatver days you want.
    If your period is regular,just make sur eyou dont schedule yourself for the heavy days.

    What about clubs that make you work a set schedule? If I decide to go back to this certain club its 2-7 tuesday through friday. What would I have to do? And that would be cool if only I had a gyno...I don't have insurance so going to the doctor is a pain.

    like ck said, if your period is reg dont schedule yourself for that day. if not maybe you could switch that day with another girl or call in sick if your club allows.

    and if your working at a topless (depending on the dress at your club) you could wear 2or 3 tbars just in case there are leaks.

    haha...this reminds me of the club I just left, where calling out was a running joke. The (male) managers were so grossed out by any mention of 'female problems' that everyone used that as an excuse when they wanted to call out of work. If you said you had a migraine or car problems or were sick, they'd grill you on it. If you called up and said "I can't come in today, I've got cramps and my period's really heavy", they'd freak out and be like "ok, ok!" and hang up the phone at the speed of light.

    Depends on the club, I guess. If your club has flexible scheduling, it's easy to just not come in when your flow is heavy. Or if your club is understanding about call-outs, then just call out. If you're working at a club where they're strict about scheduling and/or fine you a lot of money for calling out, then running to the bathroom every 30 minutes might just be the way to go. You might make a little less money just because you keep having to interrupt what you're doing to go to the bathroom, but it's really not that bad.

    My period is crazy heavy for the first 2 days, and i just dont go in. I dont want the hassle of worrying about whether i'm leaking or not, or trying to time dances, etc. to make sure i change it often enough.

    I'm bleeding like a mutherfucker right now and had to work today. I usually call out the first day or two of my period. I don't get in trouble for that. But today I had some appointments, so I went in. It suuuucked. I work two dark g-strings and was just super paranoid. I felt like I was going to start to smell or something, I also was still really crampy. I was doing a few hours with this customer and I had to run to the bathroom twice cause I knew I was about to overflow. It wasn't fun. We're also full nude, but I just didn't take it off much. No way was I going to risk leaking on someones leg. I've got to check out that cup thing.

    Anyway this is all TMI and all, but I just wanted to vent. I'm not going in this weekend.

    A divacup is a cup that you put inside like a tampon and its more secure so you won't have to be running to the bathroom all the time or even call out. I heard its awesome to use. I'm just trying to find more info on it so I can get one.

    Yeah...cause I'd rather use that then running to the bathroom every few minutes to make sure I'm not bleeding everywhere. I'm not even a tampon person but I gotta try this. And I heard its great to use if you work in a nude club.

    I'll definitely let you know...I'll try and get one before next week. Yeah most guys get grossed out by that subject. I can't even talk to my best friend (who's a guy) about tampons without him covering his ears. Just wait until I tell him this. A cup that goes in me...thats gonna be freakin hilarious.

    Hey Nicole! So other than the obvious cutting of the string, I always wear black g-string/booty shorts when I have my period just in case anything leaks ( I work in San Diego and we have to wear g-strings on stage). Good luck!

    Miss Nicole, you can go to planned parenthood for a gyno note. Also try and get on the pill. Not really for birth control but to regulate your cycles and work around that time of the month. I have the 28 pill pack, now if I skip the pill on Sundays, that gives me 3 extra days. So instead of 21 days, not counting the sugar pills(which makes 28 ), I have a total of 24 days to work. I don't take the sugar pills, so I know I have a minimum of 2 days before I start bleeding. That's 26 days total for me that I can actually work.
    I really do not have a set schedule for work. I book in weeks in advance and then work it from there. If I find that I run into an issue with my cycle and work, I let my boss know in advance, meaning I count out the pills and rearrange my calendar.

    I hope this is not too confusing but it works for me.

    Just in case, I always keep a ziplock baggie of supers in my dance bag.
