There is no strong scientific evidence to suggest that being on your period significantly increases your attractiveness to ticks. Ticks are primarily attracted to their hosts by factors such as body heat, carbon dioxide, and certain scents related to sweat or skin oils, rather than menstrual blood. However, it's generally advisable to take precautions when sitting or walking in grassy or wooded areas, as ticks can be found in these environments. Wearing long clothing, using insect repellent, and checking for ticks after spending time outdoors can help reduce the risk of tick bites.
