Health: Why do pickles, papads get spoiled by touching them during periods? Is there science or superstition behind it?
In our Indian society, a woman has been compared to a 'goddess'. As relaxed as it sounds to hear and read this, in real life, it is just the opposite. On one hand, where we call women goddesses, on the other hand, the condition of these goddesses in real life is much worse. This condition of women is not from today but has remained like this for centuries. Today we will talk about the periods of women. When you talk to doctors, health experts or gynaecologists on this subject, it will become clear how important it is for a woman to have 'periods'.
Many myths are associated with periods
Whether a woman or a girl is healthy or ill, is known by her periods. On the other hand, there are so many myths about it in society, as well as it is also linked to 'embarrassment'. A girl cannot talk about her periods. If you go to a shop to buy pads, you will have to buy them secretly and take them home. In many houses, during this time a woman cannot go to the kitchen. Can't touch ethics. The Tulsi plant cannot be touched. Can't worship because be it a girl or a woman during periods are completely impure. It is also said that during periods, dirty blood comes out from inside women, which is completely impure. The question arises, do women bleed dirty during their periods?
What happens in periods?
The process of ovulation in women is called periods. It is said that during 28 days, the egg begins to break and freeze on the wall of the uterus. When its wall becomes thick in 28 days. After this, it comes out in the form of blood through the vagina. If it does not come out, it can take the form of a tumour. That's why it is often said that whether a girl or a woman is healthy, is known through her periods.
One should not touch pickles or go to the temple during periods.
Let us know whether there is some truth in this or just a myth.
This started centuries ago. In the olden days, women used to bathe in rivers, ponds and lakes. And there was no pad culture at that time. If you read many ancient history books, it is mentioned that during periods, women used to bathe outside in ponds, lakes and rivers. Because of this such rules were made that she would not bathe during this time so that the blood would spread in the pond and there would be no problem in bathing others. And they must have been told to rest at home. In such a situation, women would stay at home without bathing during periods. Also, they were not allowed to touch the kitchen or any item. Because touching with dirty hands is wrong according to cleanliness.
Seeing the social situation of that time, such rules would have been made, but in today's time, it is not correct from any angle at all. In today's time, those who follow these rules are only spreading superstitions. At that time there was no such arrangement, so people used to earn their living by doing this. But today's modern lifestyle has everything, you should break these myths. Today's girls also take baths during periods and also take care of their cleanliness. But in some houses even today such rules are being followed very comfortably. Which is wrong. That's why it is necessary to leave these rules and move forward. During this, be it a girl or a woman, they should pay more attention to rest and cleanliness.
Does dirty blood come out from the body during periods?
Women should take special care of themselves during periods. Because during this time the risk of infection is very high. It is also true that during this time a woman should take maximum rest. As far as it is said that pickles rot, no scientific reason behind it has been known to date. If you think scientifically, how can this blood be impure? Rather it is a process of ovulation in a woman, it is the identity of a woman. This is the reason why a woman goes ahead and becomes a mother or should say that she nurtures a living being inside her. That's why a woman is considered one of the most beautiful things in the world...
