Take advantage of this special opportunity to deepen intimate communication with your pre-teen and teen daughters!  Join us for a discussion of the menstrual cycle as a vital sign:

-development in puberty
-menstrual cycle maturation
-the importance of ovulation
-how to balance hormones
-how to track the menstrual cycle

We will also give solutions for what to do when hormones or cycles are irregular or otherwise problematic, including lifestyle management, for which parental reinforcement is essential!  We will have fun ice breakers, and everything will be presented in the context of Catholic teaching on feminine dignity.  Spanish educational materials will be provided to interested mothers.

When:  March 13, 1-4 pm
Where:  St. Monica Hall, St. Joseph Catholic Church

This program is designed for teens, however our target group is younger, so the presentation will be abbreviated.  We will be focusing on sessions 1 and 2 with some concepts from 3 and 6.  We will not be covering controversial issues such as STIs or Drugs.  

This event is sponsored by the Charlotte Diocese Office of Family Life.  For more information, contact Batrice Adcock, MSN, RN at 704-370-3230 or bnadcock@rcdoc.org.
