GlacierGecko+FollowPeriod Mood Swings Are So RealEvery month, my mental health takes a nosedive right before and during my period. I get super anxious and just feel off, like I’m not myself. It’s wild how much hormones can mess with your mood. Anyone else notice their mental health gets worse around that time?

Danielle French+FollowHealthy Eats = Later Periods?Turns out, what you eat as a kid could actually delay when you get your first period! A new study found that girls with healthier diets started menstruating later, which might lower their risk for things like diabetes and breast cancer down the line. And get this: it’s not just about weight or height—diet really matters. Makes you think twice about what’s on the school lunch menu, right? #HealthNews #WomensHealth #Nutrition #PeriodTalk #HealthyKids #Health10Share
Dr. Ryan Newton+FollowDo Our Periods Really Change How We Work Out?Ever wondered if your period actually messes with your workout routine? Researchers just dropped some tea from the Apple Women’s Health Study: After tracking over 22 million workouts, they found most people stick to their usual exercise (think walking, cycling, yoga) no matter what phase of their cycle they’re in. The difference in workout time between phases is tiny! Bottom line: Just find a workout you love and keep moving—your hormones will thank you. #WomensHealth #AppleResearch #FitnessFacts #PeriodTalk #MoveYourWay #Health30Share
