Menstruation, a topic still stigmatised

Caption

The menstrual taboo persists. This is the main conclusion of a pioneering macro-study in Spain involving more than 4,000 participants and led by the INGENIO Institute, a joint centre of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and the Universitat Politécnica de València (UPV). According to the analysis, 4 out of 10 people perceive menstruation as a topic that is still stigmatised.
