I took a trip to Copenhagen in January and whilst I took a trip to Copenhagen in January and whilst I was there I visited the @designmuseumdanmark. One of their exhibits was all about the future and raised some really interesting questions that I think are relevant to this space of mentrual health, wellness & gender. 💬 What are your thoughts? #designmuseum #designmuseumdenmark #denmark #health #wellness #gender #menstrualhealth #biotech #bodies #bodilyfunction #museum #pronouns #future

It’s that time of year again! Ever since 2015 It’s that time of year again! Ever since 2015 was dubbed ‘The Year Of The Period‘, I’ve been keen to reflect on progress year by year. Let’s take a look back at some menstrual wins from 2022.

I know this isn’t very Christmassy, but I wanted I know this isn’t very Christmassy, but I wanted to highlight this recent discovery. Although the 5% VAT applied to tampons (tampon tax) was abolished in January 2021, new data shows that at least 80% of savings resulting from the cut has been retained by retailers. The tampon tax campaign was created with the idea that the benefit of the tax saving would go to those who need the products, in the form of reduced prices. Instead prices have not changed and retailers are profiting instead. Laura @corytontwins started another petition, the time urging retailers to do the right thing and lower their prices to pass on the benefit to customers. #TamponTax #EndTamponTax #DropPeriodTax #ChattyCaptionCommunity #PeriodPositive #ReproductiveHealth #SexualHealth #PeriodsBeLike #Period #PeriodProblems #Menstruation #PeriodCare #CycleCare

Shout out to those menstruating over Christmas 🎄🩸 Oddly enough, I've spent a lot of Christmases on my period. After so many, I feel like I've got this bleeding at Christmas thing down. Last year, I spent most of Christmas on the sofa under an electric blanket, napping, eating and just taking the opportunity to *really* take some time out. I think ultimately the secret to getting through a period at Christmas is to embrace the situation. Power through social engagements with the promise of tasty treats and some festive downtime after. Tis the season to rest, make the most of it! #RedMoonGang #ChattyCaptionCommunity #PeriodPositive #ReproductiveHealth #SexualHealth #PeriodsBeLike #PeriodPositive #Period #PeriodProblems #Menstruation #CycleAwareness #HeavyPeriod #PeriodCare #CycleCare #Christmas #FestivePeriod #ChristmasPeriod #Festive #Menstruating
Christmas is right around the corner, and if someb Christmas is right around the corner, and if somebody in your life is expecting their first period soon, why not put together a bundle for them? 🎁 PRODUCTS Showing somebody the options available to them is a great way to encourage agency early on. Many of us grow up presented with only two options: tampons or pads. I remember feeling overwhelmed by the thought of tampons early on and wish I had known about the various period products out there sooner. Consider buying a few different products or include information about other options they might want to try. Pro-tip: many brands will offer a first period bundle. PAIN RELIEF Whilst period pain shouldn't be debilitating, experiencing it for the very first time can be a shock. Prepare them with what to expect and a few ways to get some relief. There's a wide range of pain management options out there these days! FAVOURITE SNACK Hearing this information and taking it all in can be overwhelming; snacks improve everything. EDUCATIONAL BOOK Upon hearing information, questions are bound to arise. Whether you need help explaining menstruation or the menstruator would rather learn privately, Red Moon Gang is a great start! With chapters on the menstrual cycle as a whole, different products available and information on cycle tracking, PMS & more, I wrote this with people of all ages, gender and experiences in mind. #RedMoonGang #ChattyCaptionCommunity #PeriodPositive #ReproductiveHealth #SexualHealth #PeriodsBeLike #PeriodPositive #Period #PeriodProblems #Menstruation #CycleAwareness #HeavyPeriod #CreativeLadyDirectory #PeriodCare #CycleCare #MenstruationEducation #Education #Bookstagram #AuthorsOfInstagram #ChristmasGift #Christmas #GiftIdeas #StockingFiller #BooksOfInstagram
Hi 👋 it's been a while! I'm back to promote my Hi 👋 it's been a while! I'm back to promote my book because if I don't, who else will 😅 If you're looking for a stocking stuffer or an educational gift this year, consider picking up a copy of Red Moon Gang. I spent three years working on this book. It was a real labour of love, and as a pandemic release, it didn't really get the attention it deserved. That conjured up many feelings of failure as a first-time author, and it has not been easy. The good thing is people will always need access to period knowledge, and I wrote this with people of all ages, gender and experiences in mind. Here are some suggestions on who to buy this book for. Ultimately, Red Moon Gang is for anyone who wants to learn more about menstruation 🩸 #RedMoonGang #ChattyCaptionCommunity #PeriodPositive #ReproductiveHealth #SexualHealth #PeriodsBeLike #PeriodPositive #Period #PeriodProblems #Menstruation #CycleAwareness #HeavyPeriod #CreativeLadyDirectory #PeriodCare #CycleCare #MenstruationEducation #Education #Bookstagram #AuthorsOfInstagram #ChristmasGift #Christmas #GiftIdeas #StockingFiller #BooksOfInstagram

Hello friends! September is PCOS Awareness Month a Hello friends! September is PCOS Awareness Month and as somebody who has PCOS I wanted to try post some useful info throughout the month. Here’s a brief overview of what PCOS is and what it may look like. It’s important to note that there are a number of different lab tests that can help indicate whether a person have PCOS or not. In my experience, it comes down to a person’s unique presentation and symptoms. I’d recommend making a note of your symptoms and working with your healthcare provider pushing for in depth testing. At the very least your provider should run blood tests for testosterone, free androgen index (FAI) and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) during the beginning of your menstrual cycle (first few days of bleeding) as well as a trans-vaginal ultrasound to take a look at the ovaries. Do let me know what else would be useful to see over the course of the month and be sure to check out @veritypcos too. #PCOS #PCOSAwareness #PCOSPhotoChallenge #PCOSJourney #VerityPCOS #PCOSDiagnosis #PCOSAwarenessMonth #1in10 #Menstruation #MenstrualHealth #PCOSToWellness #Cysterhood #PCOSWarrior #PCOSTips #PeriodProblems #Menstruation #MenstruationMatters #MenstruationEducation #ReproductiveHealth #FemaleHealth #WomensHealth #PCOSFighter #PCOSSupport #PolycysticOvarianSyndrome #PCOSLife #PCOSSucks #PelvicPain #ChronicIllness #Health #LetsTalkPeriods
