Watching the film from this week was a bit shocking to me. I never knew that talking about menstruation was considered taboo in India. The fact that many women were ashamed to talk about it is a big issue since a lot of problems can occur during the menstruation period. I’m glad that women along with men have found a solution to their problems by manufacturing their own form of pads and selling them within their community. They also are selling them for a cheaper price than the ones on the market. 

After reading both articles I found it interesting that there was a lot of discrimination between patients and doctors within the medical community. It’s awful how they tend to misdiagnose or simply get treated differently because of their race and sexual orientation.
