It can be hard to get accurate and helpful information for people getting their period for the first time. We’ve designed this guide to answer the questions that young people want to know, like what is a period? Why do we have periods? What is a menstrual cycle? What period products should I use?…and more.

This quick guide helps to demystify periods and help reduce some of the stigma surrounding them.

This guide is available to download as a PDF (you can send this on to young people in your life) or as a physical booklet.

The physical booklet can be a handy resource for educators, counsellors, support workers, parents and carers.

The booklet is 10 pages, printed in colour and staple bound.

Dimensions: 210 x 148 mm
