Cells to Society: Let's Talk About Menstruation

Abstract

In a world full of technology and modernization, we still live in a society where menstruation and periods are a dirty and negative thing that we hesitate to talk about. Where females are still burdened under the myths and taboos. This research is aimed towards breaking the walls of period related myths and taboos and Introducing the IT involvement in the ground level of this field. We can use technology and create huge machines and algorithms that can detect period related diseases within a second. But what is the use of all these if females will yet not be comfortable in coming out and ask for the technology to test them. It's necessary to start working from the ground level so that females can get everything they need to know about periods without feeling uncomfortable or ashamed. This research is aimed towards understanding and looking at the social and technical aspects of menstruation. This project is a combination of society and technology.
