Let’s talk about our periods! 🩸 ゚
On average, a period involves losing about 30 to 40 milliliters of blood, roughly 2 to 3 tablespoons, across the whole cycle, not just one day. Menstrual fluid also isn’t pure blood, it’s a mix of blood, uterine tissue, and mucus. Your flow is likely doing exactly what it’s supposed to💕

Happy PMOS Awareness Month!
Physical arousal is an involuntary response, not a choice, and it can happen even in situations without consent. This is a documented physiological reality, not a sign of desire or agreement. Arousal and consent are two separate things, and understanding that matters for everyone🫶
Support is always available: RAINN’s National Sexual Assault Hotline, 1-800-656-4673, online.rainn.org.

Living with PMOS can be challenging, with pain, worry, and feelings of isolation. Awareness, support, and proper care matter.
