Period. is everything you need to know about periods. PERIOD.
Period. is a book for everyone – children and adults, mums and dads, womb-owners and ex-womb-owners. Overflowing with practical tips and advice, from what a period actually is to who does and who doesn’t have them, this inclusive book is a myth-busting must-read.
Inside, you’ll find illustrated guides on how to use period products such as tampons, pads and menstrual cups, and advice on dealing with the side effects of your period, from cramps and PMS, to acne and sore boobs.
There is no beating around the bush in this funny and informative book written and illustrated by Natalie Byrne.
10% of profits from every sale of Period. go to Bloody Good Period.
“I wrote this book for my 11-year-old self who had no idea what was going on with her body.”
“I wish I’d had this illustrated guide to periods as a teenager.”
