Our only options after our period

This meme uses the classic fork-in-the-road two bad choices format. A small cartoon figure labeled 'Me after my period' stands at a path fork. The left path is labeled 'Period' and leads to a giant, menacing blood-filled sanitary pad under a stormy sky with lightning. The right path is labeled 'Pregnancy/Childbirth' and leads to a headless image of a pregnant person, also under a stormy, threatening sky. The joke frames both menstruation and pregnancy/childbirth as the only two equally undesirable, scary outcomes for people who menstruate once their current period ends.

This meme originates from the Reddit r/Meme subreddit, sourced via RSS, with the original post title 'Our only options sisters'. It is an edited remix of the widely used 'two difficult choices' fork in the road meme template, modified to add menstruation and pregnancy themed imagery as the two negative options.
