Menstrual health & managing your period: Advice from the foster youth community

Our all-former-foster-youth squad tells all about menstrual health and periods: what they are, why they happen, and what it feels like to get one. We also share our own stories and provide tips on how to stay comfortable. We even explain the many period products you’ll see out there, such as pads, tampons, menstrual cups, period underwear, etc. After listening in, we hope you’ll realize that periods are a normal part of growing up and nothing to be embarrassed about. Your body and everything that comes with it is unique, and that’s okay. You’ve got this!
