What Is Your Period Called in Other Countries?

Tuesday 19 August 2014

There are so many ways a woman can say she is on her period, without ever uttering the word, period. Some of these sayings are just downright silly, but gave us a laugh anyways. And we all know that we could use humor when it comes to the stuffy subject, of gasp....periods!

Thanks to WomensHealthZone.com for tackling the topic of "what your period is called in other countries." We may have to borrow a few of these as they really are original! I bet it took a few women all on the same cycle to come up with some of these. After all, women on the same menstrual cycle should be considered gang members, that's how dangerous they are! #CupUp Ladies!
