No.
You have to shower to keep yourself clean. Having your period makes no difference whether you shower or not.
It's crazy not to shower during your period. You should shower during it.

Goodness gracious no! You may just want 2-3 showers per day during this time for that clean feeling. There was a time back in my Grandmother's day when women didn't swim or even wash their hair during their monthly cycle. It was just an old wives tale. Now, with the use of tampons, women know that any exercise including swimming can help alleviate menstrual cramps. So shower away!

I've never heard of that...You should shower daily especially while on your period,because of the odor,and how long you're
on.

It's ok to take showers during your period. I did it often especially warm ones because I found that my cramps could be unbearable.

I'm pretty sure it will be fine. Taking a shower will only clean you. I wouldn't take a bath while on my period, because you'd be bathing in your own filth.

Oh honey, it gets rank if you don't shower. Please, for the sake of those around you, shower regularly...especially during that time. And use FDS sparingly.
