People with periods need to stop judging which menstrual products others use. It doesn’t matter if it’s pads or tampons or a diva cup or a diaper or all four or something different. It doesn’t matter if it’s single use or reusable. It’s hard enough having a period let alone being judged for which product works best for the body.

My period’s coming soon, and I’ve honestly been pretty luck in the cramps department. They’re there, but far from debilitating. Now I’ve seen comparisons to heart attacks when it comes to the pain. The only two times I’ve ever had pain I would compare to something life-threatening is during my abortion and once when I had a cold (no idea what that was about).

I’ve seen other posts on the subject, but I want to reiterate: period cramps that make you double over in pain or worse are NOT. NORMAL. Women’s pain is far too normalized, and far too many female conditions are poorly understood, if at all.

Please don’t feel like you’re crazy or exaggerating or that women are supposed to be in terrible pain several days or more of every month (if it’s even regular). It is not true. The biggest thing you should be dreading about your period is whether you remembered to get pads/tampons or whether it’s come at an *ahem* inconvenient time, not whether you’ll be able to get out of bed.

Trigger warning: I use the word “panties” like, so, SO much in this post. Some women have really figured out how to lean in to the concept of their menstruation.
