Return to article: How to Help Girl Athletes Get Through Puberty
on 11/22/2005 If your daughter has to play sports during her period, offer her tampons. It makes it way easier! If you don't want her to wear tampons normally, just explain that when she needs to play a sport, wear a tampon, but any other day don't. This should help.
on 11/22/2005 I'm a gymnast, and going through puberty as a gymnast was really tough. Some days I could do tricks perfectly, but a few months later, the same tricks were really hard for me. I felt pressured to eat only low-fat foods, to keep myself light, not an easy task when your stomach is a bottomless hole! I finally realized that you have to feel comfortable with your body. Don't make the mistakes I made.
