Red Fan Communications, an Austin-based full-service public relations and marketing communications agency, announced today it has partnered with Kirsten Karchmer, a women’s health revolutionary committed to improving the lives and clinical outcomes of women with menstrual pain and irregular periods. Red Fan will plan and execute the strategic launch of “Seeing Red,” a bold and practical handbook for women’s health, educates women that their period is a key indicator of their overall health.

“Kirsten is an innovator in women’s health, and we are proud to support ‘Seeing Red’ and get it in the hands of women of all ages who will greatly benefit from her insights and guidance,” said Kathleen Lucente, president and founder of Red Fan Communications “There are very few people speaking about a woman’s menstrual cycles so frankly and with real solutions for the pain so many women feel.”

“Seeing Red” offers women an inspiring alternative to the conceptions they have been taught about their bodies and the shame that exists around women’s menstruation. Karchmer discusses the history of menstruation, the importance of a healthy cycle, how to establish a healthy cycle, and why it is one of the most powerful indicators of women’s health.

“I wrote Seeing Red to not only address the needs women around the world that are dealing with painful periods, but to also change the conversation around menstruation and women’s health,” said Karchmer. “I am excited to partner with Red Fan Communications, a fellow woman-owned company, to help further this message. By providing knowledge and solutions that are tailored to each individual woman, we can begin to provide a new way of thinking about women’s health and break down the barrier of our period.”
