Yes, you can go to the gym during your period. While menstruation can cause discomfort, fatigue, and cramping, exercise can actually help alleviate these symptoms by releasing endorphins and improving blood flow. 

It is essential to listen to your body and adjust the intensity and type of exercise based on how you feel. Wearing comfortable and supportive clothing, staying hydrated, and taking breaks when needed can also help. If there are concerns or complications related to menstruation, it is important to consult a healthcare provider before exercising.
