Myths and Facts: Menstrual Hygiene

Menstruation is a natural process experienced by millions of women every day. Yet, in India, it remains surrounded by myths and misconceptions that perpetuate stigma and unhealthy practices. These myths can prevent girls from accessing the proper women hygiene products or cause unnecessary shame and embarrassment.

This blog aims to break down some of the most common myths and present the facts to help promote better menstrual hygiene management and awareness.

Myth 1: Every girl experiences mood swings during her period

Fact: Not every girl experiences mood swings during her menstrual period. While some may feel irritable or emotional due to hormonal changes, many don’t experience these symptoms at all. It’s also important to note that PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome) doesn’t affect every cycle. If you’re feeling particularly low, talking to a trusted friend, family member, or professional can help.

Myth 2: You can't go swimming or exercise during your period

Fact: This is a widespread myth, but the truth is you can swim and exercise during your menstrual period. In fact, physical activity, including swimming, can help relieve menstrual cramps and improve your mood by releasing endorphins. Just ensure you use appropriate sanitary products, like tampons or menstrual pads, while swimming.

Myth 3: Periods come exactly every 28 days

Fact: Menstrual cycles vary greatly between individuals. While the average menstrual cycle is 28 days, it can range anywhere between 21 to 45 days, especially for young girls who have recently started menstruating. Irregular cycles are also common in the first few years of menstruation, and over time, the cycle typically becomes more regular.

Myth 4: Everyone can tell when you’re on your period

Fact: No one can tell you're on your period unless you tell them. Feeling self-conscious is normal, especially when you’re young, but it’s essential to remember that periods are a natural part of life. Many girls around you are experiencing the same thing, and access to proper sanitary products like sanitary pads can help manage any discomfort.

Myth 5: Menstruation makes girls impure

Fact: This is one of the most damaging myths, especially in certain parts of India. Menstruation is a natural biological process that signifies a healthy, functioning body. It has nothing to do with impurity. In fact, open conversations about menstrual hygiene and the use of appropriate women hygiene products are crucial to breaking this misconception.

Myth 6: You shouldn’t bathe or shower during your period

Fact: There is absolutely no reason to avoid bathing or showering during your period. Good hygiene, such as daily washing, is crucial for maintaining cleanliness and preventing infection. Bathing can also help soothe cramps and discomfort, and using sanitary products like tampons or menstrual pads can help manage your flow comfortably.

Myth 7: You should avoid tampons because they can get lost inside you

Fact: Tampons cannot get lost inside your body. The vaginal canal is only a few inches long, and a tampon remains securely in place until you remove it. Just ensure that you change your tampon every 4-6 hours to prevent any risk of infection, just as you would change sanitary pads regularly.

Myth 8: Sanitary waste is harmless

Fact: Improper disposal of sanitary products can be harmful to the environment and pose health risks. Used sanitary pads and other products should be wrapped and disposed of in sanitary bins, not flushed down toilets. Inadequate disposal practices can lead to clogged plumbing, environmental damage, and unsanitary conditions.

Period Hygiene Tips: Practical Advice for Girls

Choose the right product for you: Sanitary pads, tampons, and menstrual cups are all viable options. Choose one that suits your comfort and flow.

Change regularly: Change your sanitary product every 4-6 hours to avoid bacterial build-up and prevent infections.

Maintain hygiene: Wash your hands after every product change, and use gentle intimate wipes if needed to stay fresh during the day.

Disposal etiquette: Always wrap used products in tissue or the wrapper provided and dispose of them in designated sanitary bins.

The Importance of Menstrual Hygiene Awareness

Lack of menstrual hygiene education leads to the persistence of myths and stigma. Many girls in India miss school during their periods due to embarrassment, lack of access to women hygiene products, or fear of being teased. Creating an open dialogue, educating both girls and boys, and providing access to proper sanitary products are essential steps to creating a more supportive and informed society.

Conclusion

Menstruation is normal, and life doesn’t have to stop because of it. By breaking these myths, we can empower girls to manage their periods safely and confidently with proper menstrual hygiene and access to sanitary products. Periods are not a taboo; they are a natural part of being human. Let’s get the facts right.

To all my AFAB peeps living in the USA.

If you track your periods with a mobile app:

DELETE IMMEDIATELY!!

The data that’s gathered has been coincided and is benign used against anybody who’s looking for an abortion.

https://mobile.twitter.com/evacide/status/1521568113250082816?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

“The stark reality is that while cycle tracking apps can be useful, they also harbour serious privacy risks. Any[one] who uses a menstrual cycle tracking app could expose [them]self to the potential that [their] data might later be exploited to mount a case against [them] if [they] suffers a legitimate miscarriage.”

Menstruation Deliberation

This is my first tumblr post so please be kind but any constructive criticism is welcome. I have been writing stories for myself for many years but decided I wanted to start sharing them so here’s my first one.

Warnings: Talk of periods/menstruation which in my opinion shouldn’t need a warning but here you are just incase.

Summary: You are a Slytherin in 6th year and get your period in potions class but have nothing with you and have no choice but to talk to professor snape about it.

I watched as I stirred my potion and watched the cauldron bubble as it brewed. I pray this stomach ache that I’ve had all morning goes away soon, I wonder if the chicken I ate at dinner last night is to blame. I have a feeling that this potion is going to go horribly wrong as I can barely concentrate on what I’m doing with it. Oh well at least I’m in Slytherin so Snape won’t bother taking away any house points, everyone knows he’s extremely biased towards us anyway.

That’s when I felt it, I realised now the stomach ache I had is not because of the chicken. “No, no, no,” I mutter.

“Something wrong y/n” Draco Malfoy asked from the next desk over.

“No it’s okay, I just thought I stirred the potion clockwise instead of anti-clockwise but turns out I was right after all” I lied. He seemed to buy that answer as he turned back to look at his own potion with a nod.

Okay y/n don’t panic I thought to myself. But who am I kidding I’m definitely panicking, I wasn’t expecting it until Saturday and I haven’t had a chance to get any supplies from Hogsmeade like I usually do I was planning on doing that tomorrow.

Okay it’s fine I’ll just go to Snape and feign like I’m about to throw up or something and he’ll send me to Madam Pomfrey, I’m sure she’ll have something I can use until I can get my usual tampons tomorrow. Oh wait what was it Dumbledore was saying at lunch, Madam Pomfrey is out until tomorrow at St Mungo’s on a course about potions to reduce the effects of mandrake poisoning. Oh no, I thought as I also remember what else he said “Any issues in the meantime please visit professor Snape in the potions classroom where he will be able to assist you the best he can”.

Crap, this means I’m gonna have to one tell Snape I’m on my period and two also ask him for tampons for dealing with said period. Oh lord I’m never going to be able to look my head of house in the eye again.

I get up from my seat and slowly start making my way to the desk. I may as well get this over with it’s only going to get worse if I wait and I’d rather everyone not find out by me bleeding through my skirt especially not someone like Draco Malfoy. He’d surely ridicule me for months about it and probably make up some awful nickname for me and be sure to say it loudly every time I walked in the common room.

As I reached Snape’s desk he looked up. “Have you finished your potion Miss y/l/n” he said calmly.

Oh crap, I’d completely forgot about my potion, I turned round and to my relief it was not overflowing or bellowing some horrible green smoke like Neville’s seemed to be over the other side of the room. “ No sir, I kind of have a little bit of an issue”

“Oh, really? And what may I ask would that be?” He asked and I was pleased to see with no trace of mockery or a sneer like he would if it was one of the Gryffindors asking or maybe it was just because he could see the look of pure panic and dread in my face as I spoke and he was afraid if he said the wrong thing I may burst into tears.

“Well sir, Professor Dumbledore mentioned earlier that we were to come to you if we needed anything that we would usually see Madam Pomfrey for” I said awkwardly not looking up.

“Yes that is correct, are you in need of medical assistance? Did you burn yourself on the potion apparatus?” He asked again sounding confused not understanding my awkwardness.

“No it’s not that Sir, it’s just I…umm I well I umm” I said wanting to bury my head in the pumpkin patch and never pull it out.

“Come on girl spit it out, if you need help I can only assist you if you tell me what the problem is” he said losing patience with my beating around the bush.

I took a deep breath and looked up, maybe if I can act confidently this won’t be as awkward as it inevitably will be I try to kid myself. “Well you see Sir, I just started my period and…”

He interrupted me then “You can be excused to the lavatory, just hurry back so you don’t miss the rest of the lesson”. He didn’t look embarrassed or awkward like most males would at the mere mention of such things , he seemed to be trying to spare me from further embarrassment by letting me go quickly. But then again it is Snape, can you ever tell what he’s feeling, he’s so straight faced all the time.

“That’s very kind of you Sir but that’s my issue and why I would have needed Madam Pomfrey. You see I haven’t had a chance to visit Hogsmeade yet and collect my supplies because it wasn’t supposed to come yet and I just…” I drifted off embarrassed by my rambling.

“Ah I see, wait here one moment” He stated as he walked away into the potion store room. I nervously moved from foot to foot as I waited for him to return and looked around to see if anyone had noticed our interaction. To my relief everyone was deep in concentration reading the instructions to the potion we were brewing. I sighed, yeah I’m definitely going to fail with this potion since I had been distracted and I hadn’t noticed how complicated the instructions obviously were since everyone seemed to be struggling I obviously skipped a few steps, even Hermione Granger had her brow furrowed in what looked like confusion.

Snape walked back in then and handed me a brown parcel. “Off you go, sort yourself out quickly. I will watch your potion while you’re gone.”

When I reached the bathroom and enter the cubicle I open the package and it’s full of a mixture of tampons and pads of different absorbencies. Once I’ve fixed myself up I breath a sigh of relief that I’ve narrowly missed public humiliation in front of my class but can’t help wonder why Snape was so calm and why on earth did he have all this in his store cupboard?

I get back to class and slide back into my seat, it looks like no one noticed my absence and I subtly slipped the brown package into my school bag and look again at the potion instructions as Draco turns around and asks “Hey, where did you go? Do you know what the hell the last line of this potion means?”

He had pointed to the line that said “once stirred add the ingredient that is most vital to all life”

“She was running an errand for me, and yes of course she does since she’s managed to brew the potion perfectly” Snape said as he approached our desk and gave me a knowing look, not quite a smile but as close to a smile as you could possible get from Snape I expect.

Snape gestured for me to look down at my copy of advanced potion making and I could see written very faintly in seemingly magical ink that if you didn’t know was there you wouldn’t even look at the page twice “this idiot was most melodramatic, he just means water, add water. I took the liberty of doing that for you while you were occupied”. The writing then disappeared I looked up at Snape but he had already walked over to the Gryffindor side of the room and was taking 10 points off Ron Weasley and I couldn’t help but chuckle.

As the lesson drew to a close and everyone packed their bags and stood up to leave I hear “Miss Y/L/N could I see you before you leave please?”.

“Oh damn what did you do? Good luck” sniggered Draco as he left the classroom.

I approached the desk warily as Snape said “Do you have everything you need? I can provide some pain remedy if you are experiencing any cramps. I would have asked before but I thought it’d be best to let you get yourself cleaned up first”. It’s like the embarrassment of having to ask Snape had distracted me completely from the dull ache in my stomach but now he’s reminded me so it’s come back with a vengeance and I wince.

“Something to help with the pain would be great, thank you professor. Can I ask how you’re so chill about this? Most men would be weirded out and would have tried to push me out the door as soon as they could.” I say and then realise I probably should have just stopped at saying yes to the pain potion.

Snape chuckled which was such an odd sound to come out of my head of house’s mouth that I almost thought for a second I was imagining it. “ I’m so “chill” as you put it because I’ve been working as teacher for 15 years now, do you think it’s the first encounter I’ve had with a student who has been caught short at such a time? It’s my duty as a head of house to ensure the members of my house are properly cared for while they are boarding at Hogwarts. If I were to ignore the needs of female students or make them feel ashamed in any way for a natural bodily function then I would not be doing my job effectively and would not be worthy of my job title. Also you will find that although those your age who happen to be members of the male gender may be repelled by the idea of menstruation and act immaturely in relation to the subject, as they age they will slowly learn that it is a normal part of life and it should no longer bother them”.

“Oh…” I didn’t know what to say now, I didn’t know Snape actually had a decent side to him. “Thank you for helping me with my potion by the way”.

“I feel like it’s the least I could do considering the suffering you’re currently enduring. Like I said I make sure the students of my house are fully cared for just don’t expect me to do it again, we wouldn’t want you falling behind or people thinking I favoured you now would we. Now here is a potion to help with the pain, if you need any more you know where to find me” then he smiled, like a real actual smile.

At that moment Ernie Macmillan walked into the room with a pretty nasty wound to his right leg. “I got too close to the whomping willow during care of magical creatures sir”

“If you’ll excuse me Miss y/l/n I must see to Mr Macmillan here” he said as he pulled some essence of dittany out of his desk drawer and walked over to where Ernie was hobbling into the classroom with Justin Finch-Fletchley failing to hold him up.

I walked out the classroom and down the corridor toward the girls bathroom ready to take a nice hot bath and hopefully ease the cramps. I couldn’t help think about what Snape had said “wouldn’t want you falling behind or people thinking I favoured you now would we,”. He couldn’t have meant that he did favour me surely? That would be ridiculous, but I couldn’t help wondering well hoping really that’s what he did mean. God damn it I can’t be getting a crush on Snape can I? No that would be absurd. I shake my head, no it’s just the period hormones I think they’re making me crazy.

A crush on Snape would be absolutely preposterous.

Why Menstrual Cup is Your BFF: 9 Myths Busted

Written by Prerna

Updated on March 19, 2022

After trying dozens of menstrual products that do not seem to ease the uncomfortable periods, menstrual cups seem to giving women a new hope. The women using it cannot stop talking about it!

Still, the stubborn question lingers – “to use or not to use?”

And all these underlying doubts, like

“Can I use it if I am a virgin?” “Will it get lost inside my body?” “Does it come out while pooping?” What if it stretches me permanently?”

Here are the answers to all your questions!

1. Virgins can’t use cups and/or you lose virginity as u use them

“Losing virginity” is commonly referred to breaking of the hymen (which is culturally constructed and is not necessarily a physical change). But hymen actually comes in various shapes and sizes and gets worn out by a lot of activities apart from sex!

So, by now as you are considering using a cup, it is likely that your hymen has torn away naturally. And even if not, it might be having an opening of some degree which you will have to check in a mirror. This opening will let you insert the cup without a problem.

  2: “What if the cup gets lost inside me”

 Ok, your vagina is not a black hole!

Let’s recall some anatomy we learnt in school and understand that the cervix lies between the vagina and the uterus. It is a narrow tube that lets menstrual fluid pass and broadens only if you are giving birth or ovulating.

The narrow size makes it anatomically impossible for the cup to just slip up!

Moreover, as the cup collects some blood, it automatically gets weighed a little down.

TIP: If ever you cannot locate the stem of your cup, simply squat and push down with your abs and pelvic floor muscles. The cup will easily get pushed a little down for you to be able to take it out.

 Myth 3: It cannot be used in heavy flow/ What if it leaks

Leaking has two reasons:

Firstly, that the cup has not opened up fully and thus, the suction has not been created.

Secondly, a cup can only hold up as much blood as its capacity. Any amount exceeding it, is bound to leak out. Therefore, it’s important to choose an appropriate size and empty the cup every few hours according to it.

If these two reasons are met with, even during heavy flow the cup will not leak.

 Myth 4: The cup will come out while pooping or peeing

 The menstrual cup is not just kept inside your vagina; it is stuck because of suction. With the pressure due to bowel movement, what is most likely to happen is that the cup might shift from its place a little or move a little down. Falling out of a cup is an extremely rare scenario that might happen if you have not wore it properly in the first place.

 Myth 5: Menstrual cups are painful

Pain during or after inserting a menstrual cup can be caused due to a number of reasons, among which, lack of lubrication is the most likely.

If your vaginal opening is dry, it might act as a friction in the way of the menstrual cup. Using any lubricating substance, even water, might help you in painless insertion of the cup.

Since you will use a menstrual cup during your menstruation, it is extremely unlikely that your vaginal opening will be dry. But still if for some reason, your vagina is not lubricated enough, try using water or water based lubricants.

Another reason why it might hurt while inserting a cup is because you are not folding the cup the appropriate way. There are a number of types of folds that you can try with the cup and then decide which one of them is the most suitable for you.

 Myth 6: You can’t perform physical activities wearing a cup

The menstrual cup is supposed to create suction inside your vagina and due to that; it stays in its place no matter what physical activity you carry out. In fact, this is one of the features of a cup that holds it apart from other options like a pad or a tampon, that a cup is the most comfortable period product out there. You can be absolutely carefree and engage in your favourite activities without having to think about the cup falling out or causing a leak.

 Myth 7: Menstrual cup might stretch you out permanently

Vagina is made up of stretchy muscles and tissues, which can expand and contract back to its original size like an elastic band. A menstrual cup’s size might seem intimidating but it is negligible concerning the elasticity of the vaginal muscles. The vagina can comfortably accommodate a cup, so much so that most women do not even feel it’s there.

Even childbirth only mildly loosens the vagina. So, that happening with a menstrual cup is out of question.

 Myth 8: You can’t sleep wearing a menstrual cup

 Unlike pads or tampons which need to be changed every few hours, most menstrual cups can be worn up to 12 hours! This is yet another one of the many pros of a cup. So, even if you get heavy flow at night, you can comfortably sleep wearing a cup, without worrying about leaking, changing, heavy flows, etc. Having said that, most women get only average flow at night, and even with that you get a huge 12 hour window which is more that average people’s sleeping hours.

 Myth 9: Menstrual cups can cause infections

Inserting any foreign object inside the vagina is a potential chance for an infection, let alone a menstrual cup. Poor hygiene, thus is a primary cause of infection rather that the cup (or the object) itself. Apart from that, a menstrual cup is made of rubber, medical grade silicone, latex, etc which make it one of the safest objects out there to be used in periods.

Washing your hands and sterilizing/ washing the cup before inserting it is one of the best preventive habits of an infection. If proper hygiene is maintained, the cup alone does not cause any infection.
