What does Maximum Ride (and other action heroines) do when she's on her period?

I'm sorry, but she's 14/15, so she most definitely has it, unless the bird DNA messed with it. But she's always on the run, usually with only the clothes on her back. How the heck does she deal with her period? They never have any money, so she can't buy stuff, and she doesn't exactly get a lot of privacy, with them living in woods most of the time. What does she do? I guess the author doesn't take this stuff into play (he's a guy, isn't he?) and it's fiction, so he doesn't have to make it work perfectly, but still, it just isn't practical. Same thing goes for characters like Hermione or other action heroines. Any ideas on how this would work?

Tampons can last pretty long, and there are these things called 'cups' for women that last twelve hours (they are placed up the vagina) and very easy to dispose of.
