Menstrual health is surrounded by myths passed down through generations. Here are a few worth letting go of.

Myth: every cycle must be exactly 28 days

Anything from 21 to 35 days can be perfectly normal. What matters more is what's regular for you.

Myth: severe period pain is just something to endure

Pain that disrupts your life is worth discussing. It can be managed, and sometimes it points to a treatable cause.

If your cycle suddenly changes, or pain is severe, that's a good reason to book a consultation rather than wait it out.
