| Help girls in periods time | By Dheeraj Patidar |
Today’s article is very important for every boy. If any girl is also reading, she should also listen because this topic is connected to every person.
I know this is a Brahmacharya a
nd spiritual website, but the things I am going to share today are also related to spirituality.
Because humanity is also a part of spirituality. So please read this article completely.
I have seen many times around me that periods are treated like something shameful. People do not talk openly about it.
Girls often hide it from others, and sometimes they even take medicines to stop the cycle for a few days — which is biologically not right.
We need to understand why this happens and what responsibility we men have in this.
The menstrual cycle is a natural biological process in which the body of women and girls prepares itself every month for the birth of a child.
If pregnancy does not happen, then the lining of the uterus comes out in the form of blood. During this time, women face many physical and mental problems.
This time is called periods, in which hormonal changes happen very fast. Let’s understand it in detail.
1. Abdominal Pain/ Cramps
During periods, the muscles of the uterus tighten to push out blood and tissue. Because of this process, girls may feel sharp or cramping pain in the lower abdomen. Sometimes the pain becomes so strong that it becomes difficult to do daily activities.
2. Back Pain
Because of uterine cramps and hormonal changes, pain in the lower back is very common. This pain can start even before the periods begin and may continue for a few days.
3. Headache
Because of a drop in hormones like estrogen, some women may experience headaches or migraines. This mostly happens when the body is going through hormonal imbalance.
4. Weakness
Because of blood loss during periods, the body may lose iron, which causes tiredness and weakness. This becomes worse if sleep is not proper or if there is a lack of nutrition.
5. Mood Swings
Because of hormonal imbalance during periods, women may experience sudden changes in mood. Sometimes they feel happy, sometimes sad, or even angry — and all this can happen without any clear reason.
6. Irritability
Because of tiredness, pain, and mood swings, women can feel irritated very quickly. Getting angry or upset over small things is normal during this time.
But society still considers it a “taboo.” Women are stopped from going to temples, they are considered impure, and sometimes they are even kept away from household work — which is completely wrong thinking.
In schools, colleges, or public places, girls sometimes face this problem suddenly. They feel scared, uncomfortable, and embarrassed. But think — what is there to be ashamed of? Why should a natural biological process be hidden?
God has created the human body, and every part and every process has its own importance. Then why are periods seen as a curse?
We, especially men, need to understand this. A “real man” is the one who understands women’s feelings, respects their needs, and is ready to help them. Laughing at girls’ problems or making fun of them is not manliness — it is weakness and ignorance.
I also want to say to girls that if you ever face such a situation, do not hesitate or feel scared — ask for help from a trustworthy person. During this time, problems like low blood pressure, dizziness, blood loss, and tiredness can happen, which can sometimes become a big medical emergency.
I once helped a girl in college. At that time no one else was around. She became nervous at first, but when I politely asked if I could help, she asked me to bring a pad — and I brought it. The way she said “thank you” is still in my heart. These small acts of humanity are what make our lives beautiful.
In the end, I want to say — whether you achieve something big in life or not, at least become a good human being. God does not look at our prayers; He looks at our actions. And humanity is the foundation of every spiritual practice.
I wish good health to all of you.
