I just started dancing this week, and of course, my period started before my first Friday shift. My club is topless only, so I can wear bottoms. I typically wear tampons, but I'm really worried about the string showing. I was wondering what most dancers use while on their period. From what I understand, the best options are a menstrual cup (there seem to be a lot of brands), sponges (sea sponges or make up sponges), or simply tucking the string of a tampon, but which is best specifically for dancing, not camming or escorting? Are all of these safe? Have you had any issues with any of the above? Also does wearing black actually hide any leakage? My biggest fears are the string of a tampon popping out while I'm on stage (especially if I'm already wearing black for protection), a sponge getting stuck (I've seen posts about pieces of them breaking off!), or a menstrual cup tipping over and spilling (I've never actually worn one). What do you use for dancing on your period, and if applicable, what brand? What other advice do you have about dancing while menstruating?
I searched, so I know there are numerous posts on this, but I haven't seen anything comprehensive or recent with up-to-date products and safety information. If there's an informative post I missed, please link it below. I also didn't post this in body business because I want advice about actively dancing. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated, so thanks in advance!
