| | Teaching Menstruation |
 | | In order for students to understand the process of menstruation, they need to be aware of the external parts of the female anatomy and the internal parts of the female reproductive system. | | | Her understanding and acceptance of her new identity will be greatly influenced by the feedback she receives from peers, educators, and most importantly, her parents. | | | MENSTRUAL PROTECTION products fall into two basic categories: those that are worn externally, outside the body, and those that are worn internally, in the vagina. |

| | O'Grady: Is Menstruation Obsolete? |
| | While repeated menstruation made biological sense for Stone Age humans whose survival was by no means assured, Coutinho hypothesizes, regular menstruation is no longer necessary in the modern world where human survival is not contingent upon prolific childbirth. | | | We learn, for example, that the (not-so) ancient medical practice of "bleeding" a patient to health was modeled on the process of menstruation. | | | Even if Coutinho could prove conclusively that repeated pregnancy existed for the ancient woman, he neglects to note that this would not describe a woman's "natural state" (a condition imposed by nature) but, rather a social and environmental condition (as modern woman's decision to have one or two children is socially and environmentally dictated). |

| | Progress: How Women Perceive Menstruation and Their Menstrual Patterns |
| | Menstruation may be viewed either positively or negatively. | | | These perceptions may be positive or negative, but service providers need to remember that these perceptions will influence the attitudes of women—and their partners—to changes in bleeding patterns resulting from the use of hormonal contraceptives. | | | Health care providers in Thailand have experienced the same perception, and this prompted a group of Thai researchers to offer DMPA users complaining of amenorrhoea the option to switch to the combined monthly injectable Cyclofem in order to enable them to menstruate. |

| | Menstrual pain may also come from the bleeding process itself. | | | Friends who compare notes about their periods will probably find that menstruation--the monthly shedding of the lining of the uterus affects each of them a little differently, both physically and emotionally. | | | So, girls who exercise a lot-who are all bone and muscle with no fat-may delay their periods. |

| | Talking to Your Child About Menstruation |
| | For example, your daughter may be concerned that her body is changing more quickly - or more slowly - than her friends' bodies. | | | If a mother refers to her period as "the curse," her daughter might take away a negative impression of the whole experience. | | | Instead, it's a good idea to try to spread it out into lots of smaller conversations - the education about how the human body works should be a continuing process. |
