OldPoet	Simply tell him. Short and sweet. No need to go into details. As a physical education teacher, he was required to take numerous science classes. If this was the 1950's, I could understand your reluctance. But things that were taboo back then, are really of little significance now. I doubt it would embarrass him. You are not his only student who experiences this biological occurrence. I am certain he has been approached before. Please do not be embarrassed by something that is so very natural. If you are that worried, hand him a note. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Jamie	Just tell him you have cramps. He'll understand. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. He's probably had hundreds of girls telling him that they can't participate that day because of cramps. And if you still don't feel comfortable telling him that you have cramps, say you have a stomach ache and ask to go to the nurse. I used to do that a lot, and it worked just fine. Another option is to have your mom write you a note, I know that it can be a lot easier to just hand a piece of paper to him instead of talking to him. Good luck! And, remember, most girls get cramps, so don't be ashamed! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

B	if you have a female Counselor, take with her first and see if she can write a letter to the teacher. If not, then you have to write a letter or a note to him explaining that for a time each month, that you are incapable of performing to your fullest physical ability, and that physical exertion is painful. If possible, get it signed by your doctor and talk to him in private. explain to him that it hurts and offer to do extra work when you are not incapacitated. When you feel your time of the moth happening, stop by after class and talk with him, telling him that for the next few days(depends in how long your period is), you will be having your period. If it get to be a big problem(he ignoring you, pointing you out during class, etc.) talk with your principal/ dean. Your natural body cycles should not inhibit your school experience Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

mrsdebra1966	Take a cramp pill & live with it! If you have a legit medical problem, get a note from your Dr. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

drakemeow	Just because of the pains, you shouldn't have to completely stop PE. Just tell the teacher that you get these pains monthly, and give an expectful understanding. Then, maybe he will have you kick it down a knotch. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

That girl	even if you do tell him. he's gonna tell you to do it anyway cuz exercise gets rid of period pain. If you use this as an excuse he's gonna think your just lazy. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
