Scroll down to the first of the last two pictures. These are not as loose as
the previous. Similar to a previously presented print.

Only the Shadow knows...

OK, actually the Shadow doesn't know either.  Nobody knows.  But it
seems unlikely that menstruation would have had a big effect on
braies-wearing, since they wouldn't have been snug enough to keep
anything in place.  Immediately before modern adhesive pads came into
use, a belt-and-pad arrangement was the norm-- it's possible that
Medieval women had something similar.
