Our Ethos

The Period Project delivers real period, menstrual cycle and fertility education in a fun and informative way. We take the fear out of periods, while raising body confidence and equipping girls with the knowledge and tools to guide them through their menstrual cycle journey into adult years.

We want to:

• EMPOWER those who menstruate, with honest information about their bodies.

• SUPPORT healthy menstrual cycles and informed decision-making regarding reproductive health.

• EMBRACE and normalise this natural and healthy cycle with no shame and stigma attached.

Hello!

I’m Bex, a fertility nurse and natural fertility educator who’s passionate about girls and young women being taught honest, in-depth information about periods and menstrual cycles. Girls deserve to be armed with all the information they need for their journey towards womanhood, and I’m here to provide it! I love talking all things period and fertility, and sharing age-appropriate, specialised knowledge.

Periods are generally associated with shame, stigma and taboo. The limited information we receive about them growing up impacts our health, contraceptive choices, fertility, and perception of our bodies. I believe there’s no room for shame or embarrassment when it comes to periods – the earlier we normalise conversations about them, the better! With more knowledge around these topics, we can have a better period experience.
