A lot of that will depend on your RDCs. We could have whatever shampoo or conditioner we wanted, but we had to earn our bobbypins, didn't get those until week 3 or 4. I've heard of divisions where they had to wash their hair with body wash the whole time.
As far as periods go - they will definitely prescribe you birth control and ibuprofen and things of that nature. If it's really bad, I saw at least one recruit be proscribed stronger stuff and given SIQ. Generally you want to avoid that though. I don't know if they will let you stack so you don't get periods . . . although the stress of bootcamp affects everyone differently and you may wind up having it even with stacking.
