Many women I have known have left office or taken a day off due to terrible menstrual cramps and faked it as a headache or just 'not feeling well.' Talking about a subject like menstruation or period is not just a taboo in our country but people often judge you when you talk about it openly, even when they call themselves 'modern'. Thinking hard about ways to take a leave on the first day of the period has been a part of every women's life. But the question arises-- Is it a good move to grant extra leaves to women for period pain?
