Abstract
The societal base is constituted of the various age group people and their inception regarding menstruation. The lack of communication and education among community people may initiate the impending reactions towards the practices and attitudes towards menstruation. The aim was to explore the varied biological, psychological and social practices. An Informational booklet containing the myths and taboos along with their facts and realities was also given. A quantitative research approach was used and 200 reproductive age group women of rural areas were selected using convenient sampling technique. The biopsychosocial practices were assessed and the attitude towards menstruation was assessed by self-structured three-point rating scale. The results of the study indicated that the reproductive age group women had varied biopsychosocial practices with neutral attitude to the maximum. There was significant association found between attitude and marital status of reproductive age group women.
