A catalogue of movies that mention menstruation.

There are over 640,000 movies on IMDB (September 2023), but as few as 300 of them contain dialogue about periods.

People who menstruate make up around 26% of the global population; we bleed monthly for around 40 years of our lives. But menstruation's representation in cinema sits at less than 0.05%.

<aside> 💬 Have I missed a movie? Please email your **recommendations to admin@bledwel.com. I'm keen for more examples that mention menopause or have LGBTQIA+ characters.
