Body Literacy 101: For young people with periods

  • Postpartum Wellness Center of Boulder 2300 Canyon Boulevard, Suite 5 Boulder, CO, 80302 (map)

Do your bowel habits change before your bleed?

What does it mean that your period doesn’t come every 28 days?

Why do you feel full, bloated, and heavy some days?

Do you sometimes surprise yourself with big emotions?

The body is a complicated wonder. When we understand it, we can know and treat ourselves better.
