A Comparative Study On Constraints During Mensuration Among Paliyar And Kanikkar Tribes Of Tamil Nadu

Abstract

Traditional menstrual practices have long been a delicate and diplomatic issue in India. The beliefs and taboos prevent women from participating in several of their daily socio-cultural meetings and practice. Women in many parts of India must be prepared and informed about menstruation, which causes them to confront several issues and challenges at home, school, and work. It also imposes numerous unneeded constraints on women's daily lives. As a result of these factors, the current research intends to discuss how Knowledge and Traditional practices are related to menstrual health among tribes. The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate the constraints of Paliyar and Kanikkar women during menstruation.
