It s a relief. I was wondering how to discuss about menstruation withy 10 years old to make her prepare and this book give me a relief of that thought. It is written in very easy language and age appropriate way. It just not only discuss biological part of menstruation but also about psychological and social area also. It busted many myths also. Discussion related to hygiene and nutrition was done in great way. I will surely recommend it to all parents not only as guide to menstruation but also as a initial book of sex education ( which is extremely important).Just a little suggestion to authors please translate it in other Indian languages also so that it becomes accessible to all kids and there parents.

The media could not be loaded. Talking to my daughter about periods felt like walking a tightrope – wanting to be informative without being awkward, and open without killing her innocence.

Plus, it reminded me of the importance of open communication and building a trusting relationship with my child.Overall: "Menstrupedia" is a game-changer. It's informative, and engaging, and empowers both mothers and daughters to have healthy, open conversations about periods. If you're looking for a fun and supportive way to break the ice, this book is a must-read

I have my 9yr old son reading this. These are a necessity to raise understanding young men in our world.

Pros: Excellent idea of a book - a much needed book for young girls and an exceptional way of presenting the key concepts, by a lady doc's words, no less. An ideal gift for young girls.An additional plus is that in spite of a sponsor of 'plastic sanitary pads' like Whisper/J&J (it's oh so 'non-green & non-eco-friendly' you see), the book does mention alternate eco-friendly options like commercially available cloth/flannel pads & even the DIY, made at home options i.e. repurposed domestic cloth, as is still used most commonly even today in Indian villages. Appreciate Menstrupedia's stretching so far.Suggestion: Wish you had gone a step further and got a more Green & Eco-friendly sponsor like 'eco femme' instead - the book would then may also have helped solve the 'plastic disposal nightmare' that India will soon face in drastic proportions once all our villages also move to 'plastic pads', cheaply mass produced with chemical bleach et al!Cons: Just one page of euphemistic education on 'how babies are produced', as you put it, is probably not good enough - any young girl who reads this book will come up with a lot of questions for sure, on that one page.Suggestion: Probably it's not entirely in the scope of this book but a better job can be done on an at least a euphemistic explanation of human reproductive system basics. Or probably you could follow up with books on Reproductive system & health, and probably a bit around a euphemistic sex education too, next. We want young ladies not only to have a healthy period but also be aware of reproductive & social aspects, including the risks they face daily, what with the maniacs roaming today’s streets & people pushing for less parental controls & more 'free lives' - at least let them know the risks that lies ahead.Again, price could have been lesser - currently priced at almost 10 times of what Indian graphic/comic books are priced at. Even if one considers the very high quality of the illustrations and script, this could come for less than 200rs. & with a sponsor like Whisper/J&J, with many of their Ads appearing as inserts and more importantly their brand finding mention in many pages of the book, you can really give the book at a very subsidized price.Suggestion: Pl bring it down to affordable range so that the target customers are not just the tax paying / top 3% of India, but includes the broader middle class young girls too.

The product is very attractive and good .very easy to talk to your young girl

This book called "Menstrupedia" isn't your typical snooze-fest biology textbook. It's actually pretty cool, and I'm not just saying that because i got this for my sister who made me read it.First off, it's like a comic book, with funny characters and pictures that make things way less awkward. It explains all the stuff about the female body and, you know, that monthly visitor, in a chill way that even a clueless dude like me could understand. It even cleared up some myths I had (no, girls don't turn into grumpy monsters every month!).What I liked most was that it answered all the questions I never dared to ask. Like, why do cramps happen? And most importantly, how can I be a good brother when my sis is on her period? (Spoiler alert: chocolate and offering to help with chores go a long way!)Seriously, this book is a lifesaver. It helped me understand what my sis is going through and made me realize that periods are a normal, healthy part of life. No more mystery, no more weirdness, just knowledge. Thanks, Menstrupedia! P.S. If you're a guy reading this, trust me, do your sis a favor and check this book out. You won't regret it. And hey, maybe you'll even learn something that comes in handy
