Menstruation- owning your lived experiences. | Sonal Jain | TEDxACE

Most of us have commonly heard people say things like, "Every woman undergoes period pain, you should get used to it" or even worse, "I've never seen anyone be so unstable around the time of their periods, then what is the matter with you?" No two women in the world are born the same then why do we generalize one's lived experiences? Ms. Sonal Jain talks about the experiences that she has lived with which revolve around her menstrual health. She explains how every experience is unique; how all the information that we are fed with needs to be reassessed, and that every experience is valid and urges all of us to question fiercely, frequently, and with compassion to find the power in our lived experiences.
