Is It Safe To Take Clarithromycin During Menstruation ?

I'm taking Clarithromycin and I'm on my 5 days, I will take it for 10 days but my menstruation came today. Should I continue taking it or stop and what would be the effect if I will stop it? Or If I continue taking it while having my menstruation, it caused problem?
