A funny menstrual product ad has a girl on the search for a mythical creature: the period fairy.

Does this mythical creature even exist?

You know how there’s a tooth fairy?

OK, maybe there is, maybe there isn’t. But as kids, most of us are told there is. (Those random teeth have to go somewhere, right?)

With the possibility in mind, the folks at HelloFlo asked some questions: What about a period fairy? Does she exist? If so, how can we find her?


Potentially the Period Fairy. Potentially not. We’re not certain. Image and all GIFs via HelloFlo.

Lillian Dire is on the case.

‘Cause let’s be real: There are some things that girls and women need to handle with other girls and women.


Nooooo! #Mansplainer.

And then the shero arrived!

But, like, where is she? Do any of the other mythical creatures know?


Jealousy: not a good look for Santa.

The Tooth Fairy seems like she’d know.

Lillian never found the Period Fairy. But she realized the truth.

There’s a shero in all of us. 😉
