Adventures In Menstruating is a zine created by United Kingdom resident Chella Quint.
The zine covers a wide variety of aspects about menstruation, especially societal taboos against discussing periods and mass media's marketing of "feminine hygiene" products. Starting with issue 1 in August 2005, the zine has included deconstruction of vintage ads and personal anecdotes of "leakage horror," as well as poems, songs, and crafts with a feminist view of menstruation.
