Question

• What does it mean for someone to ‘own their period’?

Answer

• Understanding their own cycles and what their normal bleeding patterns are is really important so a person can be aware of any changes or missed periods that they might need to discuss with a doctor or nurse. Everyone’s experience of their period will be unique. If someone knows how their period affects their body and their mood, it can be really empowering as most problems can be resolved when they’re identified and discussed with a professional.
