is it normal for a girl not to shed skin
Periods & hormones
luna thinks you may be referring to a symptom reported on social media relating to periods. Some misinformation has been spread on social media about menstruators shedding skin on their period, but it's 100% a myth! Although periods can come with different side effects, shedding or peeling skin is not one of them.
