Menstruation. It’s a necessary biological function experienced by all women, yet still a dirty word. The stigma around menstruation is further exemplified by the many euphemisms that exist for the term: “time of the month,” “period,” “female troubles,” “girls wahala" etc.

Periods is also a widely stigmatized issue. It is a topic that people are usually uncomfortable talking about and is typically a topic that is only discussed behind closed doors. #ItsTimeForAction
