Cataloged from PDF version of thesis. Includes bibliographical references (pages 38-39). Women's income is still seen as a secondary source of income by their family members regardless of their professional success. This belief system also permeates the workplace as the male counterparts look down on their female counterparts. Yet, women have consistently shown themselves to be just as productive as men in the workplace, time and time again. But are expected to work just as hard as men, without complaining or raising physical or family issues at work. The fact that women are seen as more of a consumer rather than a producer of the family's standard of living is a widespread chauvinistic mindset that leads to continuous stigmatization around ‘menstruation’ and ‘menstruating women.’ The study looks at the main difficulties women face when menstruating on a workday and their living conditions, which may be linked to their barriers to advancement in their field. As a result, deep-seated gender discrimination is becoming increasingly visible in the workplace.
