Book on Periods

These books are a fun read; a story of two adolescent girls who amidst their giggles and nonstop blabber, share experiences of school and life. All along, they talk at length about different aspects of growing up & menstruation.

The Urdu book  (बातों बातों में) باتوں باتوں میں is taken up by Indian Army, Srinagar Regiment (Chinar Corps) for mass distribution among young girls in the valley of Kashmir under their ‘Mission Sadbahvna’ project. 

Periods or महीना is a taboo subject in most households. In spite of being the purest and most natural life-giving process, it is considered ‘dirty & disgusting.

Talking about it openly is considered a “गन्दी बात”.

And so, most young girls usually remain clueless about ‘why it happens, normal vs abnormal, problems and complications related with it, how to deal with difficult situations, what to believe & what not?’

These book will help them understand the finer nuances of menstruation in the simplest way possible.
