Programme 4: Periods

Introduction

This programme focuses specifically on problem periods. Young women speak openly and frankly about their particular problem, describing how it has affected their lives, the treatment they've received and its effectiveness. While accepting the wide variation in the nature of periods and women's experiences of them, the key message is to seek immediate advice if periods are causing problems and preventing you getting on with your life.
