Menstruation
Menstruation, also known as a period, is a natural process that happens once a month for those with a female reproductive system. The menstrual cycle is the hormonal cycle that prepares the body for pregnancy and is typically around 28 days long. However, the menstrual cycle can vary from person to person. Along with menstruation comes premenstrual syndrome (PMS), a group of physical and emotional symptoms that occur before menstruation. In some cases, PMS can develop into premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), which is a more severe form of PMS. In this series of posts, we will explore various topics related to menstruation, the menstrual cycle, PMS, and PMDD, and provide insights and tips on how to manage them.
