3. Hormones really do mess with your mood
Speaking of “that time of the month,” it’s not just physical pain women have to deal with. During Aunt Flo’s visit, women can become completely different people, and that’s because her hormones are all over the place. Believe it or not, periods are so awful for most women, that there’s an entire website that’s dedicated to taking submissions as to how horrible they are, and it’s literally called, Why Periods Suck.
Aunt Flo aside, hormones mess with women outside of that, too. Birth control pills are basically huge piles of hormones that are doled out in pill form on a wheel, that have the added benefit of weight gain and increased risk for blood clots. Sure, hormones affect men, too, but men already know that. Women are in the same boat.
