Abstract

In our society, the application of feminist and gender perspectives to research and social conception of the menstrual cycle continues to be a pending task. In the collective insight, menstruation is still fraught with stereotypes and myths, due to the absence of educational, social, health and political resources for its treatment.

This leads, on the one hand, into the perpetuation of the taboo that encompasses the menstrual experience, and on the other hand, in a lack of knowledge about its main characteristics, phases, symptoms and signs, associated pathologies, etc.

This project aims to highlight the importance of self-knowledge, self-care and the ability to understand the signals from our bodies as personal resources of individual and collective empowerment, through awareness and creation of common learning and experiences in relation to the menstrual cycle.
