There is so much unnecessary stigma around periods. Break this cycle by educating your daughter about menstruation.
When To Talk
The usual age of menarche is 9 to 12. Ideally, you should talk to your daughter about periods when she begins to show the signs of puberty.
Introspection
Before you talk to your daughter, inspect your own opinions about periods. You might be not able to let go of your views, but do not force them on your daughter.
Period Talk
Tell your daughter the physical details. Don't hide anything. Let her know why it happens, what are the symptoms and how to deal with it.
The supplies
It is also important to explore period products together. When you do this, she will not panic in future when the time finally arrives.
Establish Normalcy
Do not hush-hush about periods in your home. Discuss openly so that your daughter can know that it is nothing to be ashamed of.
Conclusion
Periods are the most normal things which half of the population experience. Guide and support your daughter through her puberty to make it hassle-free.
