Let’s talk about what to wear on your period. If you’re one of the lucky ones with a lighter flow and no major bloating, you might not get this one. If you’re like me and have a constant worry about clothes being ruined and go up at least a dress size, this one is for you. […]
Before we get into this, hello, my name is Sophie and I’m a die hard Clue user (not an ad). Whenever I see or hear people asking for recommendations for period/ cycle tracking app recommendations I’m always first in line to sing Clue’s praises.

Period shame is a weird one for me to be talking about. Those of you who have arrived here because you liked the original series will be well aware of the fact that I have zero period shame.
