Growing up comes with questions and we’re here with answers.
To mark #WorldMenstrualHealthDay2025, we created a FREE Menstrual Health Handbook for girls aged 9–16.
For every girl starting her period, or anyone guiding her, this is your go-to guide:

For International Day of the Girl Child, we partnered with Landmark Africa for Invest in Girls’ Rights, bringing together students from multiple schools for spelling bees, debates and conversations on menstrual health, period dignity and education.
We also spotlighted Periods Made Easy, our menstrual health resource with 1,000+ downloads.
Investing in girls means investing in their rights, voices, and futures.

Look it’s our founder 😍
Deborah’s feminist awakening started at nine, before she even knew the word feminist.
From seeing girls forced out of school to discovering the language of resistance, her story reminds us: awareness starts young, but courage makes it grow. 💜

“The silence around menstruation continues to shroud its many realities, PMDD, PCOS, and menstrual waste management, but how can we talk about innovation in period care when the leaders of tomorrow are missing school because of their periods”

No.
We’ve normalized silence around periods, and it’s costing girls their education.
Tomorrow at 9am, my short documentary “When Periods Keep Girls Out of School” will air on YouTube. Shame doesn’t live here 🫵🏽

It’s a Period, not a war crime, get with the program 🫵🏽
the world doesn’t need to know you are on your period, we need to bring back shame
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
There is nothing shameful nor embarrassing about menstruation and the menstrual cycle as it is a natural cycle occurring in most mammalian species. It is important to destigmatize menstruation and not propagates hysteria surrounding menstruation.
