Periods can be really difficult for women special for younger girls.
It’s sad that taboo and stigma are attached to periods when it’s something that affects every woman.

I don’t understand, Why can’t we talk about menstruation?
Have you heard about Ambubachi mela held at Kamakhya Temple in Guwahati, Assam ? It is believed that the presiding goddess of the temple, Devi Kamakhya, the Mother Shakti, goes through her annual cycle of menstruation during this time stretch.
Anyway, you are welcome and thanks for sharing your thoughts.

This taboo of menstruating women of any age , becomes really significant when menstruating women are not allowed to enter a temple or other holy places.

मुझे लगता है, आज का युवा वर्ग काफ़ी समझदार होता जा रहा है. शायद गाँवों में भी ऐसी सुधार आए.
