And the phrase “all women” includes trans women, who do not menstruate.
(“People who menstruate” correctly excludes them from the category being discussed, which is talking about menstruation.)

It was uncomfortable for me to write this post because I am from a generation that was brought up not to talk about menstruation in front of (cisgender) men.
But I did it because using inclusive terminology helps trans men and nonbinary people to get gynaecological care when they need it.

I’m nonbinary and have menstruated (not any more as I’m post-menopausal)
so I’m included by the term “people who used to menstruate” and excluded by “women”.

*People who menstruate*
“People who menstruate” includes cis women, trans men and nonbinary people who menstruate.
It also correctly excludes post-menopausal people.
It’s only used in the context of people menstruating, not as a general term to designate all women (same applies to “pregnant people”).
