Menstruation is the process of cleansing our body from waste blood. Menstruation can happen at the age of 10-13 on average but you can also get it at the age of 5-9 if your body is healthy and grows fast. Menstruation can also be called a period.It is nothing disgusting nor embarrassing about periods it's just normal so few of my friends have periods and one of my friends say that if you live in a hot place then you will get your period fast.
Products that can be used during menstruation:

Take Away:
Going through a period or menstruation is healthy and nothing to be ashamed about. We should stop whispering about it and start having a conversation with friends, family and everyone around. Also, menstruation should not be regarded as ‘impure’ or ‘unholy’. It's just a natural process, let’s embrace it!
