This project is inspired by my personal period problems since I was 14, This work is a product of all the period cycles that have made me the person I am today. 

Countless nights of overflowing pads, terrible cramps, irregular period cycles, back-pains, mood swings and hormonal imbalances. Additionally it also explores the topic of stigma with something as natural as periods. 

Overtime with all the pain and problems, I learnt so much about strength, tolerance, women rights and patience. Therefore, certainly I claim that anything a man can do, a woman can do bleeding!
