Menstruation

Question 2 • Mong HEALTH

Which option best describes the cause and effect of the social stigma surrounding menstruation?

Answer

Cause: Schools and workplaces provide free menstrual products and education. Effect: Individuals become more ashamed of their periods and avoid seeking help.

Cause: A lack of open discussions and education about menstruation. Effect: Embarrassment and misinformation about periods, limiting access to menstrual products.

Cause: Increased government support for menstrual equity programs. Effect: More people experience stigma and discrimination related to menstruation.

Cause: Menstrual cycles have no impact on daily life and do not require discussion. Effect: There are no societal challenges related to menstruation.

Explanation

When menstruation is not discussed openly and people lack accurate education, myths and shame can take hold. This can lead to embarrassment and misinformation, and stigma may make it harder for people to obtain menstrual products. Therefore, “a lack of open discussions and education” causing embarrassment, misinformation, and limited access best describes the cause and effect.
