Secret Habits of the Menstruating

 

We asked menstruators from around the country to share their secret cravings, habits, and rituals surrounding their periods – all with a surrealist twist. What's your #MonthlyBehavior? Tell us on Facebook or Instagram!

Menstruation isn’t just a monthly cycle – it’s a rhythm filled with personal rituals, cravings, and moments of care. We asked real menstruators from around the country to share what comfort looks like for them, from quiet yoga mornings to late-night snacks. This is part of our ongoing #MonthlyBehavior series – a celebration of self-care, honesty, and humor during our periods.

From vegan treats to heating pads, every menstruator’s habit tells a story of comfort and connection. At Lena Cup, we believe in honoring those rituals – because every period deserves care, individuality, and a little joy.
