Our history and extraordinary story. Your care, redefined.

Social Media Usage

Tanner Health System’s social media pages/accounts are online communities. Our posts are informational in nature and should not be misconstrued as healthcare diagnosis, medical advice or a substitute for medical advice or diagnosis by your physician. If you need a physician referral, please call 770-214-CARE (2273) or search Find a Provider.

We encourage likes, comments, questions, constructive criticism and reviews, but we expect these interactions to be appropriate, respectful, relevant and tolerant. Personal attacks, defamation, racism, ethnic slurs, spamming, excessive posting and inappropriate language will not be tolerated. We reserve the right to remove posts that violate those rules. We also reserve the right to remove or hide posts that identify patients or health conditions other than the person making the post, posts that suggest illegal activities, posts that are made by imposters, posts that advertise or solicit business, posts that could be interpreted as political lobbying or posts that infringe in any way on the rights of Tanner or Tanner employees. Additionally, we reserve the right to block future posts by individuals who habitually violate these rules or any social media network's terms of service.

Typically, a healthy menstrual cycle occurs every 21 to 35 days, lasts from three to seven days, and is accompanied by a flow that doesn’t interfere with daily life.
