When a woman is unreasonable, it’s easily tagged as “that time of the month”. It can often be unfair, especially because there is more to this than what the men in our lives like to assume.
Our period cycles span almost an entire month and every few days, something changes in our body. Hormone levels can change dramatically, depending on where we are in our cycle. That’s why there are days when we feel like we can do anything and days when we just want to stay home with a bag of chips and Netflix.
Here’s a short break down of what happens during a woman’s period cycle:
Days 1-2: The first day of your cycle is the first day of your period.
Tissue and blood lining your uterus is the blood otherwise known as your period. Estrogen is low and women often experience fatigue and cramps. You might not feel like it but these days would be good days to exercise. Your mood might not be so great and your energy level is low.

Feel Good
Days 3-5: Estrogen begins to increase towards the end of your period.
This hormone helps boost endorphins or your brain’s “feel good” chemicals. The same one that is released during exercise. Your energy also rises along with the rise in estrogen and ultimately this is you feel more upbeat at this time.

On Top of the World
Days 6-9: With your estrogen up, you are sure to feel more beautiful and energetic.
And it’s no wonder because your skin is glowing and your face looks more symmetrical. Testosterone also rises during this time and you are most likely to feel unstoppable and on top of your game.

Bringing Sexy Back
Days 10-13: You are now approaching your ovulation which means you are feeling sexiest.
You are most fertile during these days and women who want to become pregnant have the best chances of conception when they try at this window until ovulation day. Your orgasms are more intense and are attainable during sex. Estrogen levels are at the highest and women feel best emotionally and physically.

Hello, Ovulation
Day 14: For most period cycles, ovulation happens on this day.
Ovulation is when an egg is released from the ovary. This egg lives for 12 to 24 hours. There is also a sudden hormone change during ovulation, which may intensify your emotions and tiredness.

Watch What You Eat
Days 19-22: Estrogen level begins to drop while testosterone surges if you are not pregnant.
Your skin might be producing more oil than usual. This means you might be experiencing breakouts or sensitive skin. This is a good time for you to eat healthy.
Ending the Cycle
Day 23-28: If you are not pregnant, your estrogen and progesterone levels continue to drop.
You may begin to experience bloating and sluggishness. The quick change in your hormones is also responsible for your quick changes in mood. This is a good time for you to boost your serotonin levels through exercise and to cope with breast soreness. You should also reduce your intake of sugar, make sure to stay hydrated, and reduce your caffeine intake.

An unfertilized egg will soon leave your body together with the uterine lining that your body created in preparation for possible pregnancy. Once your period begins, you go back to Day 1 in the period cycle.
Jeunesse Anion pads help with the cramping and dysmenorrhea through the anions released by the strip. These anions “bind to the positively charged ions (of the body) which restricts the movement through the ion channel,” says the research result of Yasmin Endañol, UP Diliman Institute of Chemistry. “If there are no ions available for movement, the channels will remain closed, and signals will not be transmitted. Thus, pain felt by the user during dysmenorrhea is lessened to a minimum.”
