Dear Kat,

I am having a gym situation. I'm not afraid of the exercise, but you can see the padding that comes with me "down there girl problems". I've had falling grades because I haven't been following the gym dress code. I don't want anyone to notice, but I don't want to fail. What should I do?

Dear Gymshorts,

Been there done that. Have you tried wearing a tampon. Not only does it not show, it keeps you feeling dry. Make sure you don't leave it in too long and tuck the string away! If you aren't comfortable with that solution, you can wear sweatpants or go shopping for gym clothes while wearing a pad to see what looks and feels right. Hope this helps.

xoxo,

Kat
