Scotland defender Nicola Docherty has revealed that discussions are ongoing regarding a potential kit switch due to period concerns.

England’s new home kit, launched on Monday, features blue shorts after players raised concerns over wearing white while on periods.

The Republic of Ireland national team have decided to stick with white, but it remains to be seen if Scotland will opt for change.

"If only one player feels uncomfortable, that's enough for us to change it," Docherty said. "We have been discussing this since October.

"There's ongoing discussions behind the scenes and, if we as a team feel we want to change, we will definitely change it."

Wales manager Gemma Grainger says her squad plan to holds talks over wearing white shorts due to period concerns.

“We haven’t had that conversation with our group yet and that is something we will do,” Grainger said ahead of Wales’ home friendly with Northern Ireland on Thursday.

“As the manager I want to listen to the players and ultimately want them to be comfortable, because from a performance perspective that’s what I demand from them.

“So ultimately if they are comfortable that’s key. We haven’t had those discussions yet, but we will.

“My focus with those discussions is very much listening to the players’ needs and making sure they are able to perform to the best of their ability.”

Wales captain Sophie Ingle echoed Grainger’s desire to hold conversations around white shorts.

“We probably do need to discuss it as a team,” said Chelsea midfielder Ingle.

“The first few days of camp are always very busy and we’re focusing on the game, but sometimes we have to look at things away from the training pitch and what’s going to work for us as a team.

“I don’t know until I speak to the whole team how everyone feels about it, and I think it’s going to be a very individual-based feeling.

“But I know the FAW (Football Association of Wales) will be very supportive of whatever our decision will be to do with white shorts.”
