Why don't you ask your mom instead of a bunch of strangers on yahoo.

I know it's not the same but I once had my period during a taekwondo match and I wasn't wearing a pad. It was a big mess cuz I didn't know I'd be having my period.
If it's really all that important to you, just be sure to wear something thats black so that if it does seep through, it isn't noticeable. Bring extra undies, extra pants and extra pads or tampons <-------- most important.
Don't forget to check the flow when you have a pocket of time to avoid stains.
Good luck with the show and I hope this helps!

As long as you feel well enough (no excessive cramping or fatigue), you can do everything that you normally do. Physical activity can actually help relieve cramping. You may want to take some pain meds before hand though, such as Advil or Midol, just so cramping doesn't get too bad for you though.
Good luck with your show!

are you riding a stallion or will there be stallions in the competition? some might think this is a weird question but it is not. Stallions can smell when a woman is on her period and sometimes there can be behavioral problems with the stallion associated with that. If you keep yourself clean and use a tampon then you should be ok. as for general riding while on your period because of health concerns for you..then go for it..you can do just about anything while menstruating

OF COURSE it's okay!!!! You can swim, ride a horse, ride a bike etc. etc. e.tc while on your period. I know these things are a hassle, but life shouldn't have to stop!!! :-)
Good luck for your show!

yeah, i think its safe to ride a horse during your period, just make sure that you are not wearing a tampon, because that might go far up or something, i dunno. But also if you are riding a horse while you are on your period, it just might be a little messy, thats all.

I think it's perfectly fine, unless u have a habit of getting very bad cramps. Other than that go for it, and if u get minor cramps just take some pills/medicine before it.
Good luck!

yes put a tampon in right before and then you'll be fine just dont leave it in too long and if its a heavy load wear a light pad to make sure no blood shows on your breeches
