To follow up on my previous National Period Day post, I want to continue to destigmatize talking about periods by talking about how high-altitude / international travel affects your period and how products like Always 3-in-1 Liners can help. When I was climbing Everest/Chomolungma this past spring, I was pretty freaked out when my period lasted nine straight days. Normally, it is only four-five days long. Luckily, we had a female high-altitude doctor, and when I asked her, she told me that periods go “cray cray” at higher altitudes. I’m so grateful I was able to talk to her about it and she knew what was going on! It put my mind at ease.For situations like these, I love packing @Always_brand 3-in-1 Liners. Whether you are climbing a mountain, backpacking or in a big city, Always Liners provide protection from bladder leaks, irregular periods and discharge so you can climb with confidence.For many years of my life, I felt so ashamed to talk about these issues. I’ve found it liberating to be able to discuss periods openly and honestly. And I don’t want women of any age to feel that shame. It’s important to have these discussions to normalize conversations about women’s health. Thanks for supporting me in continuing to normalize period discussions! #ad
