1. Period blood is dirty blood: For years we have heard that period blood is dirty blood. This blood contains large amount of toxins but, this is just a myth.

2. A period of less than four days is not correct: We all have heard it many times that if a woman’s period is less than four days then it is not good. This is just a myth because every woman’s menstrual cycle is different. It only depends on the health of the woman that how many days her period will last.

3. Must avoid sour things: We have generally heard that women should not eat sour things during periods. No scientific research has found that eating citrus during periods is harmful. Yes, women must eat a balanced diet during this period.
