Periods: Early Education and Experiences

In this episode, FLOWsters from Bloodstream Media share their first encounters with menstruation, coping with period pain, and managing menstrual health. They explore societal taboos, stories of learning about menstruation, and highlight experiences with bleeding disorders. The conversation underscores the importance of education and open dialogue. The team continues Flow’s mission to normalize conversations around menstruation and educating everyone, not just those who menstruate; as Patrick notes: 'Women's health is human health.'
