According to me as a women, there should be mensuration leave for atleast 3 days because I have seen many women or girls going through period pain as hell but on the other side there is other womens who don’t feel any pain at all.
1] In fact I have seen my close friend, she is like consuming turmeric with water balls for pain relief.
2] I have seen my mother – on the periods, continue vomiting and pain (back pain) -(specifically).
3] Whereas in my case, I sometimes feel worst pain but sometime there is no pain but the body pain and back pain is common.
On periods every women is going some through body pain , specially back pain.
i.e other thing – she is not showing it in front of everyone.
For working + married women , period days become more difficult because she have to work at home as well as office .
So according to my point of view, mensuration leave is must according to company or by measuring other factors also.
