What is Menstruators

Menstruation has long been considered a vital part of a woman's health. The fact that transgender males menstruate is only recently being acknowledged by academics and medical professionals; therefore, little is known about their viewpoints and menstrual experiences. For this demographic, dealing with menstruation is one area where coping skills are necessary, enabling some degree of independence. This chapter contends that in order to address menstrual shame, taboos, and stigmas in a gender-inclusive manner, degendering menstruation is necessary. The focus of the chapter is on the menstruating experiences of transgender men. An in-depth interview with four trans men menstruators is included in this chapter. For content analysis, the data were evaluated after collection. The chapter would be helpful for future research on empowering and promoting the health of menstruating transgender men.
