It's Just a Period, People!

About

On this pro-period website, we'll be deconstructing menstruation, periods, menarches, moontimes and more.

IJP is run by Mia and Kristan. Be sure to check out their websites and the rest of the great resources we've included on the 'Sites We Like' page.

We'll do our best to answer any questions that you have while we entertain you with our absolutely absorbing period-positive posts. We love suggestions and questions, so use our ask and submit boxes as often as you'd like.

NOTE: This is a sex-positive, body-positive, gender-neutral, PoC-friendly, queer-happy, LGBTerrific, and trigger-free site. Any messages/posts that undermine this site's goal of being an inclusive and safe space for everyone will not be tolerated. Potentially triggering posts/photos will be indicated with a trigger warning [TW] at the top.

DISCLAIMER: We give lots and lots of reproductive health-related advice on this blog that is founded on our experiences, the experiences of others and our own thorough, independent research. While we feel that our site is a reliable source of information about reproductive health, we do not claim to be healthcare professionals. Please seek out a healthcare professional for medical or psychological treatment.
