Here's a thread for the ladies to discuss anything that relates to women and swimming. For example, feel free to discuss how disgustingly ugly fastskins are, how the "curse" can kill a meet, how suits don't fit, how swimming wrecks your hair, how hormones unhinge you, etc.

Have a good weekend everyone.
Happy swimming for those who are going. I swim Monday morning thank goodness. I am very sore. I am hoping for a bike ride tomorrow. Not a triathalon type bikeride. Just one around the neighborhood on my Mary Poppins bike.

I am not a guy but I can say that from the many years of competing in karate tournaments it does hurt alot to get kicked down there. They do make female protectors and I invested in one when groin kicks were allowed.
Speaking of the curse dampering a meet. AF came 5 min before I had to swim the 400 IM LC.

My personal gross-out in the locker room: the big clot of hair in the shower drain. It's ALWAYS there. :shakeshead:.
Former Member
ooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Scwids. That is gross. Though my husband complains about the same thing in the girls bathroom as they both have long hair and it clogs the drain .

These women's locker room stories are mild, very mild, compared to some of the bizarre, gross, and outright horrifying stuff I have seen in men's locker rooms over the years. However, I will say that swimminlyn brings some quality nasty stories to the discussion.
Anyone ever seen a turd in a sink? That's just the tip of the iceberg.

Well, what really helped me was a good vitamin routine (for when I went off the pill.)
Multivitamin
B Complex
Evening Primrose
Black Root Cohosh
Soy Isoflavones
Omega 3/6/9 Fatty Acid
And then I started going to a chiro. All's pretty good now. Use Proactiv for any acne. Just wish I had done this from day 1.
