yes you can!! the Labs are looking for the presence of drugs. Therefore if you did not consume any of the illegal drugs , your period won't mess you up. It's just blood. !! Simply let the person know at the testing center that you're on your period. good luck

Yes. You can take a urine test and/or blood test. The urine analysis will need to be at least 15-30 cc in volume for the Quick test (standard ) for 8 drug categories.

THC, Opiates, Cocaine, Meth- Amphetamines, Methadone, Heroin, PCP, and Amphetamines.

If you have not consumed drugs in any way and have taken a drug test while menstruating you will not fail. However if you have consumed drugs, depending on how much and often can effect how long they stay in your system. Drugs (including alcohol) can stay in your bloodstream for as few as 1-2 days to as many as 7-8 days.

You can take a urine test while menstruating but some results may be slightly altered. The primary difference is with hormones which will be much higher than normal.
