What symptoms made early period experience (first 5 years) the most challenging? What situations made the experience harder?

How did your early experience differ from how you feel about your period today (both emotionally and physically)?

How and when did you learn about periods initially and from who (school, parents, doctor, etc.)?

• What do you remember learning?
• What is something you had questions about or wish you had learned?
• Imagine you could travel back in time and talk to your past self. What would you tell her about getting a first period? What tips would you give her? 

What do you think is an unmet need for teens experiencing periods today? What will the future of first periods look like in 5-10 years?

Propose an innovative product solution for teens experiencing the early years of a first period. This can be a product solution or something to support their body’s natural processes related to the menstrual cycle that's not on the market today!

• This could be a new supplement, medicine, patch, way to administer medication, food item, specific symptom relief product, etc.
