We’re on a mission to change the way society talks, thinks, and feels about our reproductive health.
Let’s make ‘it’s just a bad period’ history.
“The more I share my story, the more power I take back for myself.”
— Carol-Anne, PCOS
Conditions like endometriosis, PCOS, PMDD, infertility, fibroids, and POI impact millions of people in the UK. And whilst each reproductive health condition affects people in different ways, they all have one thing in common. Their real, day-to-day impact on a person’s life keeps getting dismissed. At school, at work, at home, and in the GP’s office.
This has to change. Freja’s is your space to share your story.
The more we share, the louder we get, the harder we are to ignore.

‘When I first got out of surgery, my partner and mum were absolutely horrified to learn that they’d removed 16 fibroids, and they couldn’t believe that I’d been walking around with that in my body. (…) we [as a society] have also normalised pain, and even extreme pain, as just part of being a woman.’
