"A woman's attitude about her menses impacts her
experience of giving birth. The more she has been aware of her bleeding time and holds deep respect for her womb, the easier
the birth. "
--Sharon Maloney, author and
women's health practitioner
The Red Web Foundation is an international women’s organization working to transform society’s view of the female
experience. We recognize the menstrual, menopausal
