Saskia Falken, standing in for Sara-Jayne Makwala King, is joined by Dr Nasreen Akoo and Dr. Tennille Thomas, general practitioners and the founders of Health Hive, to discuss periods and the stigma surrounding menstruation.

Their practice offers virtual period counseling, a 30-minute online session where girls can ask questions and receive guidance on products, anatomy, and what to expect during their periods.
