Red Moon Gang An Inclusive Guide To Periods is a warm, unapologetic and refreshingly humorous handbook that clears away stigma and replaces it with the latest research on menstruation. Written by writer and influencer Tara Costello and boldly illustrated by Mary Purdie, this paperback speaks to anyone who has ever dealt with a period, using gender-neutral language that leaves cultural hang-ups at the door.
Drawing on more than a decade of writing about menstruation, Costello covers every part of the cycle, from the biology behind why you bleed each month to the hormonal shifts behind PMS. She dives into the full range of menstrual products, weighing their pros and cons, and explains common conditions such as endometriosis and polycystic ovary syndrome in clear, approachable terms.
What sets this guide apart is its honesty. It explores how having a period shaped the author's relationship with her own body, and it makes room for conversations that health class usually skips, including how menstruation affects people living with body dysmorphia, poverty and disability. A closing Period Toolkit rounds things out with favorite products, retailers, practical tips and further reading.
