Absollutely, Would be very glad if women gets one day leave for period. There are many women who have servere troube to manage both work and that discomfort sometimes they apply leaves or does’nt contribute there full efforts due to uncomfort during that time. It would be great if this discussion goes to higher authorities and contribute a monthly one day leave for women.

Definitely, a day off can help a lot of women employees/workers deal with the discomfort and pain associated with Menstrual periods and result in better performance the following days.

Many women don’t have it easy. Some suffer from heavy periods and others with severe pain due to multiple lifestyle and medical conditions.

Normalizing it can also help in dispelling the taboos surrounding it.

The 1 day menstrual leave policy idea is good as far as we are concerned about our hormonal balance and physical exaggeration. At the same time, I do believe that since the school then the degree and now currently even in the job we being the women are woking on the menstrual days, even standing and working for extended shifts as well. So, overall it’s a good plan to execute.

Menstrual leave is an issue much deeper than comfort for women, it relates to acknowledging physiological factors and championing equality between genders. Such strategic policies can help lessen attendance-related issues, enhance productivity, and cultivate understanding in academic and workplace cultures.

Yes, it’s important for one’s body. Women go through hormonal changes every month and its necessary to give rest to our body.I think this policy should thrive and leave be granted.

Menstruation can come with pain, fatigue, and discomfort that affect daily functioning. A 1-day menstrual leave in colleges and workplaces offers much-needed rest. It promotes empathy, supports women’s health. It’s not a privilege—it’s basic care.

There is a genuine need for a 1 -day menstrual license policy in universities and workplaces.
For many, the first day of menstruation brings severe cramps, fatigue and hormonal changes that make them extremely difficult to stand for long hours in laboratories, clinical publications or office tasks.

You’ve raised such an important and sensitive point. :cherry_blossom: Menstrual leave policies can truly support physical and emotional well-being, leading to better productivity and inclusivity at work and college. It’s time we normalize conversations around menstrual health and create supportive environments. Thank you for starting this discussion! :clap:

I believe each individual is different. Some women don’t have that many problems during the period, while some have worse situations. The 1-day menstrual leave policy should be implemented, but when to take the leave should be in the hands of women be it on day 1 or day 4 of menstruation.

Menstrual Leave in college for one day is valid due to the sufferings in women for exposure to long hours in lab and during presentations and this may require self declaration;1 day Menstrual leave policy in workplace should be a paid leave and it can be a work from home ,so that the emotional and physical rest occurs.

As a student, I believe that one-day menstrual leave would be a great support the women. The first day of periods usually comes with intense pain and cramps affecting the concentration. Resting on this day promotes better health and helps us to manage the pain effectively so that we can perform well academically afterwards.

That’s a wonderful suggestion for the women who have extremely painful menstruation. It can be an option for the women to take a day off for herself and her recovery on the day she feels extremely exhausted and cannot handle the wave of hormones running in her body. On the other hand those who experience normal periods without much cramps can continue as usual if they wish too.
