Occasionally, my menstrual cycle jumps me, hits me over the head and takes me hostage. I use sick days, maybe once or twice a year, when it's really bad. I think, sometimes, that we've gone too far the other direction in our society. Our cycle doesn't make us weaker or less, but it can really bag out our system, especially when there's other stuff going on. It takes energy, stamina for the whole thing, and if you need a day ... I say take it. It's not a weakness, it's just biology. = )
Going with the, ah, er, flow...
