Teena Period Party at SGC Studio

A first period is a reason to celebrate (and definitely nothing to be ashamed of!): To mark the launch of Valley Group's Teena period tracker, we hosted a period party at SGC Studio in April 2023. Editors from the health, society and wellbeing beats joined us as guests.

As part of a “Period Panel,” Teena founder Natalie Rechberg spoke to various experts on site about how to prepare teens for their period and why it is a real superpower and what we can learn from other cultures. Guests: gynaecologist Dr. Stephanie Eder, sex coach and author Antje Heymann and presenter and role model Collien Ulmen-Fernandes. The discussion was supported by the results of the Statista study carried out by us on the topic “How teenagers feel about menstruation”. In terms of cuisine, too, all signs were RED: In addition to the red-colored chocolate fountain and fresh fruit, there were vulva-shaped cupcakes and a red-themed candy bar.
