Menstrual Education Series
Your First Period
So you are sitting around waiting for the moment the it happens and anxiously at that. What to do when it happens, who to talk to, what supplies do you need? Thinking about all these things especially as a teen or even pre teen can be scary and overwhelming and that is why I created this easy to use handbook to help you through it.
Is it gross?
Nope! It might seem messy sometimes, but it’s just your body doing something amazing.
More Feelings….
You might feel more sensitive, moody, or easily overwhelmed. (Hormones at work!)
Be Prepared
You can’t always tell exactly when your first period will start…keep some essentials in your bag.
Affirmations help!
I trust my body. I am growing into myself, and I’m ready for what comes next.”
Hormonal Handbook
Your Inner Seasons
Throughout the four phases—Menstrual, Follicular, Ovulatory, and Luteal—your hormones gently rise and fall like waves. These shifts don’t just change what’s happening in your body; they influence how you think, feel, move, and relate to the world.
Menstrual Phase
Drained or quiet, sensitive to noise and stimulation, emotionally tender, reflective, in need of solitude or comfort
Follicular Phase
Refreshed, mentally clear, hopeful, excited to connect, ready to try new things
Ovulation
Charismatic, enthusiastic, confident, magnetic, aligned with others, full of momentum
Luteal Phase
Sensitive, easily overstimulated, hyper-aware, drawn inward, craving control or clarity
