Content Writer, PumPums

Queenie Mae writes the cycle-health guides and period-relief recipes on the PumPums blog. Her articles cover the questions women ask most about their cycles: period cramps and PMS, bloating and cravings, PMOS (formerly PCOS), irregular cycles, perimenopause and menopause, plus easy, cycle-friendly recipes for every phase.

Her goal is simple: to explain what is happening in your body in plain, warm language, so you can feel more informed and less alone in it.

How Queenie researches and writes

• Research-based: articles draw on published research and trusted medical organizations such as the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), MedlinePlus, Mayo Clinic, and peer-reviewed studies on PubMed. Sources are linked within each article.
• Clear about evidence: when research is limited or early, the article says so.
• Kept up to date: articles are reviewed and updated as new information and official terminology change (for example, PMOS, the updated name for PCOS).
• Educational, not medical advice: content is for general information only. It is not a substitute for advice from your doctor or another qualified health professional.
