Puberty is a series covering every aspect of puberty; from growth, zits and sweat to breasts, vagina and the penis. In this episode, we learn about the vagina and menstruation. The vagina is shown via female models, and we also illustrate the inside via drawing on the models‘ body. The different stages of development from child to fully-grown adult are also dealt with. In addition to this, concrete facts are at the focus of the program: the amount of eggs each female produces, for example, or the number of tablespoons each female bleeds when she menstruates. The program tries to de-mystify the subject of menstruation, explaining how it all works. The aim is to show things as they are in a no nonsense way. The series has gained international notoriety for this, and received acclaim worldwide. It has also received some prizes, first and foremost the NRK journalism award of the year.
