We are healthcare's dirty little secret and this podcast is calling out the BS in women's health. Women have been gaslit, dismissed and ignored for far too long.

    Did you know the vagina is the inside not the outside? Do you know what the vulva is made up of? Can you remember your sex education classes?


    We've got the answers to all these questions and more as we break down why there is so much stigma and shame around the female body.

  • Your Vagina Shouldn't Smell Like A Tropical Paradise: Kathryn King (Part 1)
    Mar 25 2026

    Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE to never miss an episode of It’s Not Just A Period Podcast and to keep up to date with Alexandra’s Vlogs.


    Welcome to It’s Not Just A Period!


    Joining Alexandra this week is the one and only period bombshell herself, Kathryn King. She is a menstrual health educator, advocate and founder of Bloody Honest with over half a million followers across social media.


    Kathryn is a wealth of information when it comes to the menstrual cycle, periods and period products. She uses her platform to educate young girls, teenagers and women answering questions from 'how many holes do I have and what do they do?' to 'how can I measure my cervix?'.


    You may think you've seen it all when it comes to period products but this episode will open your eyes to a world of products you never knew existed. We also go back to basics and talk about what sex education never did, including the vulva, vagina and what actually happens in a menstrual cycle.


    We'd highly recommend watching this episode as it features lots of interesting props!
