Welcome To Your Period by Yumi Stynes
5.0
A factual yet upbeat overview on all things period. Whether you are a seasoned veteran, a first timer or are a non-menstruating individual that is simply curious, the entire spectrum of potential period problems are covered. Interspersed with real-life questions and anecdotes from people with periods, the information is not only accurate, it's funny and messy and complicated - just like a period!
The comprehensive breakdown any child who will eventually menstruate (or any child who will eventually know someone who menstruates) should have. It is a foundation off of which to build further conversations about other important physical, mental or biological developments such as how bodily autonomy should work, when is the right time to have sex, and/or challenging the gender binary.
It is best for a younger audience to be armed before it may occur, however, it is also a useful resource for all children no matter the age due to how much of female anatomy is being purposely obfuscated nowadays. I highly recommend it. I absolutely could see little me vibing to this (and let me tell you I certainly could have used it).
