Hannah Kahn got Covid-19 in mid-November (2020) and expected to get her period shortly after. “I was just worried about having Covid-19 and distressed by it,” she said. Additionally, as someone who’s been on birth control for five years, Kahn has experience with missing a period or having it come very late. When her friend reached out in her group chat and others described similar issues, she felt validated. “In an ideal world, we would be talking about Covid-19 changing your period the same way we talk about Covid-19 affecting your sense of taste and smell.” – By Leah Boyd/The News & Observer/Tribune News Service
