For The Menstruator @ftmenstruator

Menstruation can feel uneasy with bleeding &whatnot can be quite a ride. Here are some things to avoid saying: that they're only doing it for attention "it can't be that bad now!" that they're being too emotional that they're complaining too much or PMS-ing "just chill&relax!"

On a side note one should always be encouraged to quit smoking as it affects the overall health of menstruators and non-menstruators alike. #periods #forthemenstruator #ftm #menstruation #menstruators #menstrualequality #smoking #drinking #fertility

Delayed menopause is also associated with excessive drinking. There are also chances of decreased fertility and change in hormones. Someone trying to conceive should stay clean from alcohol and nicotine.

A couple of drinks a week surely won't harm your period. However, avoid chronic amounts. Excessive drinking and smoking can negatively affect your periods. High alcohol and nicotine levels disrupt typical hormonal fluctuations boosting irregular periods and PMS symptoms.

This hut is a dangerous place for any human to survive from dehydration, snake bites, smoke inhalation and so on. Though illegal in many places now, these huts are still present and functioning. #periods #periodpoverty #periodhuts #taboos #forthemenstruator

Menstruation huts,mainly found in India&Nepal,are specifically built for menstruators to quarantine during their period.This is largely a result of menstrual taboo where menstruators isolate themselves during their period in this hut which in most cases lack even basic sanitation

Ovulation is the phase where a mature egg releases from the ovary & travels through the fallopian tube to the uterus.If the egg doesn't fertilise, the uterus lining breaks down and causes a period. This process occurs once during each cycle.The window of ovulation is day11-day21

Studies have found some synchronicity between menstrual and lunar cycles. However, in modern times, this idea has been refuted because of artificial light and lifestyles. Attempts to parallel the moon to fertility may have come from a desire to be connected to the universal flow.

People have wondered for long whether the menstrual cycle is linked to the phases of the moon or not.The moon has four phases: Waxing, Full, Waning, and New. The menstrual cycle also has 4 phases: Follicular, Ovulatory, Luteal & Menstrual.

Many people aren't aware of a reproductive ageing stage called perimenopause, which occurs just before menopause with similar symptoms but both stages are different. Check out the post to find out more about the symptoms! #periods #menstruation #menstrualhygiene #ftm

Previously a niche, expensive product, period knickers are now readily available on the UK high street. Period pants fit within a broader trend, namely the disruption of the period industry by startups and entrepreneurs keen for a slice of the £29bn global menstrual market.

FTM has collaborated with @operationperiod and @Awareness360 with a goal to provide 100 menstrual hygiene kits to sex workers in Bangladesh. With this new initiative, the organization aims for inclusivity &access to menstrual hygiene for anyone and everyone!

First lady of Gunaya pointed out that the initiative birthed out of a project which revealed that many girls in Guyana were forced to leave school because of period poverty.

First Lady of Guayana, Arya Ali launched her Menstrual Hygiene Initiative in Region Two at the Anna Regina Multilateral School. All 2,051 girls in secondary schools in the region will be provided with one year’s supply of sanitary.

We got your shopping needs and needs for social change covered. This September, we are collaborating with Sash Cosmetics. We will donate a sustainable period kit to a menstruator in need for every Sash product purchased! So let’s help menstruators by purchasing our products!

Menstruation is a natural process and products related to it are a necessity! But, unfortunately period products aren't readily available. In our opinion, employers have a big responsibility to create more inclusive work environments that focus on reproductive health as well.
