My Period

Milli Hill - 2021

The one stop positive guide to getting your period. Getting your period can be exciting - but it can also be quite daunting and there are a lot of questions you might be too scared to ask.

The Hormone Diaries

Hannah Witton - 2019

With her trademark honesty and humour, Hannah explores and demystifies topics surrounding periods, hormones and contraception, to offer readers support, information and advice.
