You know what a period is.
But do you know how the menstrual cycle actually works?
Many men grow up learning that girls get periods, but never learn what happens before, during, and after menstruation—or how the cycle can vary from one woman to another.
Menstrual Literacy 101 fills that gap.
This practical workbook introduces the basics of the menstrual cycle in clear, accessible language so you can understand what is happening, recognize what you may not know, and ask better questions without making assumptions.
You're not just reading information.
You'll reflect on what you actually learned growing up, test your menstrual literacy, practice identifying important differences, and consider what you may have previously overlooked or misunderstood.
The goal isn't to diagnose your partner or predict how she will feel.
The goal is to understand more, assume less, and become better equipped to support the women in your life.
