Symptoms During Menstruation
Understand how symptoms change during menstruation and what you can do as a partner.
During menstruation the body works hard: the uterine lining sheds, prostaglandins can cause cramps and fatigue, and iron loss through bleeding often shows up as tiredness. As a partner who understands these physical symptoms, you can offer targeted and effective support — not as a doctor, but as an attentive companion.
