That got us thinking - what does menstrual equity actually look like? What would a society that has achieved it actually consist of?
Check out some of our ideas, and leave your own in the comments. 👇

Living with fibroids can be a journey filled with complex decisions and emotions.
As you navigate your particular needs and care, it’s crucial to know the difference between being supported and being overlooked when it comes to your treatment plans.
Empower yourself with knowledge, advocate for your health, and remember your voice matters in every step of your treatment. If your medical provider disagrees, it may be time to find a new one.
