dc.description.abstractMenstruation is a natural bodily function that has been heavily stigmatized and viewed as a private issue for individuals. Stigmas surrounding periods can directly impact how people view menstruation and seek help. Period poverty is one of the impacts from stigmatization. The lack of access to menstrual products and education pertaining menstruation significantly affects one's health, education, and social participation. This thesis investigates the experiences of adolescent girls in Cape Breton, a region with little to no research on menstrual health.
