I shower once a day, when I'm on it.
I'm like BellaDonna2884, where I keep wipes on hand, to prevent anything bad from happening!

I agree!

I shower the same amount as usual, which is usually once every other day sometimes every day. Just depends really.

Not sure why I would shower more. It's not like I get it all over myself.

Once a day, like usual, except if I've had sex - things do get messy then.

My showers actually go down unless I'm going somewhere. It just irks me that I'll be getting dirty almost immediately after so I cut it down to once every two or three days if I'm just loafing.

Twice unless there is an accident. Morning and night.

I just shower once, like always, but I use a menstrual cup so there's less mess.

This is better than showering more.

My shower schedule doesn't really change. It depends more on what I did during the day or how hot it was, period has no impact.

No changes, but it's not like I get any messier than usual. Like others have suggested, I throw some wipes in my purse for the occasional freshening up on the go.

It depends on how dry my skin is and how heavy my flow is. If it is really heavy I might shower once and then rinse off a few times. If my flow is light and my skin is dry I might shower every other day like normal.

Every other day unless I do something to make me dirty. I'm usually in a terrible mood and try not to do too much, lest I piss people off.

It all depends.

If I feel more "dirty" (for lack of a better term) then I'll have an extra shower. I seem to sometimes sweat a little more on my heavy days.

i shower the same as i normally do. There's nothing about my period that is more dirty....most of the time blood doesn't even leave my body because my Cup catches it all and doesn't leak (and i can put it in before i start my period).
