13 Illustrations That Perfectly Describe Why Periods Are A Literal ‘Pain In The Ass’

No body loves periods. Everyone knows that.

But believe me when I say this, I have tried my best to not hate my periods, but it keeps giving me a new reason every time! I decided to make peace with the cramps, and then it gave me ruined underwears. When I decided to make peace with that, it gave me inexplicable mood swings. And let’s not talk about how it comes unannounced EVERY TIME I am outdoors with no availability of pads or tampons nearby. 🙂

Daisy Bernard, a very talented artist has portrayed some of these thoughts in her quirky illustrations, and believe me, they will give you all the feels. Let’s have a look!
