    Twice a day, whether or not I'm on my period.

    Once in the morning just so I'm fresh for the day and again in the evening.

    Just every day! I don't need to shower more than that!

    I guess if your's is heavy, then you may want to. But I don't see how it's 'odd'.

    #Once a day as usual. I use a mooncup so it's not like the blood ever gets 'on' me. Whenever I take the cup out I'll use wipes or give myself a quick wash if possible before I reinsert it.
    Can I ask you what the mooncup's like? There were adverts for it all over Leeds fest and I'm not sure...

    There's a thread in the sexual health section i think (not sure) which has a lot of info...but from personal opinion...i dont know hiw i survived without it. it totally removes any stress from my period and i almost forget im on. it's a brilliant money saver and just generally brilliant...but you cant dislike the sight if your own blood or be afraid to grapple around inside of yourself!

    Same.

    I wonder how some girls don't get this icky feeling. It's not a nice feeling.
    Ikr! I started earlier today (I've been waiting for like a week coz I've had reeaaalllyyy sore boobs! :eek2:) and already I have that icky feeling! Worst thing is that I can't even shower because we're having work done in our bathroom and the dumb builder dude took our shower head off for some reason :cry2:

    The entire week is not a good time until it gets lighter or finishes! Sometimes I just can't wait for menopause lol

    Once a day. Sometimes twice because hot showers can help to ease really bad cramps.

    And if you wash your vagina 4275439087345 times a day you will end up smelling anyway. There is such a thing as over-washing "down there" you know.

    To answer the question : once a day, and I use baby wipes when I use the toilet.
    This is true. When you over-clean, you disrupt the normal vaginal microflora (various bacteria and fungi that maintain the normal, slightly acidic environment) and this can lead to proliferation of bacteria/bacterial vaginosis; "fishy fanny".
