Let's talk about periods! Code Red is the podcast that opens up honest conversations about menstruation and menstrual health. We're here to challenge taboos, share stories, and dive into the science, culture, and impact of periods. Because if half the population is affected by periods, why is this only discussed by a fraction?

    The menstrual cup, sustainability and period shame

    In this episode, Yzanne speaks with Kirsty Osei-Bempong about her experience with using the menstrual cup, having a sustainable period and feeling ashamed on your cycle. They chat about their first periods, what it was like taking out the menstrual cup, how period advertising still misses the mark (we'd rather be clutching a hot water bottle than frolicking in a white skirt) and the little-known origins of period pads.  Follow us @coderedpod
