BlissfulCycle: An Innovative Website Fostering Holistic Menstrual Well-Being

Abstract: Menstruation remains a major impediment to quality of life for many, as persistent stigma and inadequate resources magnify struggles managing periods. This paper proposes BlissfulCycle, an innovative website fostering holistic menstrual wellness through five key capabilities. Users can track cycles, access vetted education content, join anonymous forums to share experiences, schedule affordable telehealth consultations and conveniently order essential products. Further self-care resources including yoga videos, curated playlists, nutritious recipes, inspiring quotes and a restroom locator promote physical and emotional comfort. By providing an integrated hub consolidating knowledge, community support, personalized care and destigmatized dialogue, alongside enhanced convenience accessing supplies, BlissfulCycle aims to empower individuals to understand and navigate their menstrual health confidently. Ongoing user surveys will iteratively refine BlissfulCycle's features and user experience to ensure optimal utility.
