Is it bad to run when you're on your period?
No, running is okay when you are on your period as long as you are able to avoid cramps and fatigue. In fact, some people run marathons on their period (though many athletes prefer birth control pills to avoid this). ChaCha!

About Birth Control Pills
Birth control pills prevent pregnancy by stopping ovulation, or the release of an egg into the ovaries. Birth control pills contain hormones -- estrogen, progestin or both -- which prevent the egg from being released before menstruation. If no egg is released, a sperm cannot join with it. Hense, pregnancy is prevented. There are many different pills, so consult with your doctor to choose one that is right for you.
