💡 DID YOU KNOW… that 33 states DON’T require medically verified health education? And those that do, don’t all require health education to be taught (or at least not on a consistent basis…)
👉 For many of us, talking about our personal health, including mental, menstrual or sexual, was OFF LIMITS, both in school and at home. And, like more than 80% of Americans, our founder's school only had 1 sex-ed class (in the 5th grade) throughout ALL her years of schooling.
😔 Needless to say, there were many questions unanswered…
🩺 Unfortunately, this lack of health education causes stigma and misinformation that can lead to long-term health consequences.
💙 We’re teaming up with STIX to bring even more *** medically verified *** women’s health education to our Puberry lessons! Real Talk with Stix, a sexual and vaginal health company, is making learning and talking about women’s health less taboo, and we’re all about that! 🥳
👉 You can even see our collaborative post “How to talk to your kids about puberty without making it cringey” to learn more about how Puberry can positively impact #health #education.
