Michelle from the Period, Pain, Endometriosis Program (PPEP Talk) came to talk to students last week. 

With 8 in 10 female teenagers suffering period pain and 1 in 9 female teenagers developing endometriosis in their lifetime, The PPEP talk is a positive, interactive, enjoyable program that demystifies periods and pain.

Michelle was able to provide students with information on how to recognise when symptoms are abnormal, simple ways to improve symptoms through diet, medication and stretching and when to look further for help.

This program is an initiative of Pelvic Pain Foundation of Australia and funded by Federal and State Territory Governments.
