Let’s be honest

The world hasn’t exactly prioritized women’s periods.

For too long, we’ve been told that cramps are “normal,” mood swings are “just part of it,” and if we really want to function during our period, we should just pop a pill, power through, or quietly disappear for a few days (or even weeks).

At OhmBody, we believe women deserve better. Period.

That’s why we’re reimagining what menstrual wellness can look like—backed by science, rooted in the wisdom of our bodies, and built for real life. And this blog? It’s an extension of that mission.

Welcome to Periodically Speaking—a space for cycle-smart stories, science you can actually understand and use, and unfiltered conversations about what it really means to live in a body that menstruates.

Here’s what you can expect from us

Science, Simplified — We’ll break down the research behind menstrual health, hormones, painful cramp management, heavy menstrual bleeding, mood swings and more—no white coats required.

Cycle Wisdom — From luteal phase fog to follicular fire, we’ll help you understand what’s happening in your body—and how to work with it, not against it.

Real Talk — We’re not here to sugarcoat your symptoms or sell you a miracle. We’re here to support you with facts, tools, and a fresh perspective.

Your Period, Reframed — Menstrual health isn’t a side note—it’s a vital sign. We’ll help you treat it that way, every phase of the month.

Why now?

Because the conversation around women’s health is finally shifting. We’re no longer settling for stigma, silence, or short-term fixes. We’re asking smarter questions, demanding more from our care, and supporting solutions that work with our cycles, not against them.

OhmBody is proud to be part of that movement. And Periodically Speaking is our way of keeping it going—one smart, honest, and empowering article at a time. Whether you’re someone who’s battled painful periods for years, just starting to track your cycle, or simply looking for a hormone-free way to feel better each month—this space is for you.

We’re so glad you’re here.
