Description

Welcome to the Period Month Extravaganza Questionnaire! In this month’s edition, we asked the period practical basics like what is menstrual flow, how long do periods and cramps last, and how much blood does the body lose? We also talk about period products, and how to deal with period displeasures: what to eat and what to avoid, easing menstrual cramps and swimming during periods. Listen along to find out if that last one leaves you vulnerable to shark attacks!

TLDR: Water, fruit, and dark chocolate are recommended whereas spicy foods, alcohol, and coffee should be avoided during menstruation.
