Millions of women and girls suffer with severe period pain and/or heavy bleeding that disrupts their lives. Instead of getting the treatment and support they desperately need, they’re often told it’s ‘just a period’.
This is unacceptable.
Nobody should suffer from period symptoms holding them back.
"Just A Period" highlights the scale and severity of women's experiences, and signposts people to the charity's information hub for support and advice.
The hero video shares the shocking experiences of Dawn, Beth, Tanya and Esther to show the true impact a period can have on your life. Plus Wellbeing of Women Ambassador Dr Nighat Arif features to support the campaign too.
Alongside the lead video, a series of case study videos shares each woman's story: watch Dawn, Beth, Tanya and Esther.
