Jessica Biel shared her experience of having periods for the first time and how she cried "hysterically." On Wednesday, Biel posted a Get Ready With Me video of herself on Instagram, where she recalled experiencing menstruation for the first time.

She started by saying, "Today, I want to talk about something that not a lot of people talk about, which is crazy because it happens to 50% of the population." "And, still, in 2024, having a hard time destigmatizing this... your period, right? I think it's just important to normalize this thing," she added.

Jessica Biel Recalled Getting Her Period For The First Time

In her conversation with the viewers, the actress shared how she still feels awkward carrying a tampon to the bathroom in front of the public eye. Recalling her childhood days, Biel said, "I was like 11 years old, and I was playing the grandfather character, which was one of the best characters of the show." The 7th Heaven actress said she was portraying the character in her school play. 

"I was so scared, I locked myself in the bathroom. I was crying hysterically, so I called my mom. I told her, you know, 'something's wrong.' That's what I felt; I felt like something was wrong with me. Even though she had prepared me, I wasn't prepared," she said. "And to this day, I'm still hiding tampons up my sleeve as I scurry away to the bathroom, which is insane. You should not feel that way at 42," said the Candy star.

The actress concluded the video by adding, "I ended up doing my play; my mom helped me out, hooked me up. It was bizarre; I managed to do everything I needed to do that day and still have my period, so pass that around."
