    Skiing with your period

    Skiing with your period: tips and tricks for a carefree day in the mountains

    Periods rarely come at the right time - and especially not when you're about to go skiing. But don't worry: with the right tips and tools in your luggage, you can continue to hit the slopes without having to worry about your period!

    Can I ski or snowboard during my period?

    The short answer: Yes, absolutely! Your period is no reason to miss out on fun in the snow. Some menstruating women even find exercise beneficial when they are struggling with menstrual cramps, and the feel-good hormones released during exercise can act as a natural mood enhancer. Of course, it is important to listen to your body. If you feel tired or unwell, take a break - after all, your ski holiday should be fun and not require peak athletic performance.

    With a few simple tricks and the right preparation, you can enjoy your time on the slopes to the fullest - whether you have your period or not.

    Do period products last all day – even when moving and in the cold?

    Maybe you've asked yourself the question before a long day of skiing: What if my period product doesn't keep up? And do intense movements like skiing or snowboarding or cold temperatures affect the reliability of tampons, pads and other products?

    Some people report that pads can quickly become uncomfortable when you move around a lot. They can slip or stop sticking properly after a while, which can lead to leaks during high-movement activities like skiing. They can also feel wetter, particularly in cold or damp conditions, and thus be less comfortable.

    Many people find tampons, menstrual cups or period underwear to be safer and more comfortable because they don't slip even when you move around a lot. You can also use period underwear as an additional backup to pads, tampons or menstrual cups: if one product doesn't keep up, you're doubly protected.

    Tip: If you prefer pads, choose models that are made specifically for sports. These are often thinner, more flexible and fit better. Tight-fitting functional underwear can also help keep them in place.

    Packing list for period emergencies on ski holidays

    Being well prepared is half the battle: A small period emergency bag in your backpack is worth its weight in gold. Here's what you should pack:

    - Sufficient tampons, pads or alternative period products

    - hand disinfectant

    - A small plastic bag for used hygiene products (if there is no trash can nearby)

    - The right clothing: If you are worried about leaks, choose dark ski underwear that won't stain immediately. Spare underwear can help you feel safer in an emergency. An even more reliable addition is period underwear, which gives you additional security against leaks.

    Changing tampons on the mountain – no reason to panic

    Tampons are the preferred choice for many when exercising. But what do you do if you have to change them in the middle of the slopes?

    Use the toilets in mountain huts: Plan your day so that you make regular stops at huts. Most ski resorts are well equipped, and a toilet visit every few hours is practical anyway.

    Hygienic changing: It is best to have a disinfectant handy - if there is no soap or no way to wash your hands, you can use this to disinfect your hands before and after changing your tampon.

    Try alternative period products: If changing tampons is too stressful for you, a menstrual cup might be a better choice for your ski trip. This can be worn for up to 12 hours and is a stress-free option, especially when skiing.

    For those who prefer to avoid disposable products or simply want an extra layer of security, period underwear is a perfect solution. These specially designed panties are not only comfortable but also extremely absorbent.

    Why period underwear is your ideal companion when skiing and snowboarding

    Super comfortable: ooia period panties fit like normal underwear, don't slip and don't get in the way under ski pants or thermal underwear. They feel like your regular underwear and are only slightly thicker in the crotch area than a pair of panties without leakage protection - guaranteed no diaper feeling!

    Safe: Depending on the model, our period underwear can replace up to 6 tampons and can be worn for up to 12 hours at a time. This provides additional security for long days on the slopes.

    Sustainable: As an alternative to disposable products, period underwear produces less waste and protects the environment - a bonus if you love the mountains and nature!

    Flexible: Period panties are perfect as a backup to tampons, menstrual cups or pads or simply as a standalone period product - depending on which solution you feel most comfortable with.

    With the right preparation, a little planning and practical tools, nothing will stand in the way of your ski holiday. If you are not feeling well or have less energy due to your period, it is of course absolutely fine to take it easy on your period and opt for a leisurely walk in the snow. But if you feel like skiing, don't let your cycle slow you down - pack your ooias, grab your skis and hit the slopes! 🌨️⛷️
