I’m an OBGYN and This TikTok Period Advice is… A Lot

An OB-GYN reviews popular TikTok advice about menstrual cycles, including "cycle syncing" and moon-phase period claims, and separates what is medically sound from what is not. The video also covers how a tilted uterus can cause the so-called period butt zap and why exercise performance can differ across the cycle. The discussion draws on several referenced videos about period exercise myths, ovulation, the menstrual cycle, and whether a period is normal. It is presented as general educational information and not as a replacement for medical advice.
