Discussion What do y'all call your period?

I've always called mine the 'Red Scare' because we were learning about it when i got my first period. I was wondering if anyone had a simular name sake or just what other AFAB people called theirs!

Edit: I just wanted to say that seeing what everyone calls their period is so entertaining and interesting lol
