Aunt Flo

Aunt Flo is rated 3 out of 5 in the category health. Read and write reviews about Aunt Flo. One out of 5 girls drop out of school when they get their period. India’s culture portrays women to be Goddesses, but shows them the door when one of their most basic biological functions kicks in. Menstruation is a taboo - something that should not be mentioned in public, or at all, if it can be helped, and girls on their period are treated poorly; they are not allowed to sit with the rest of the family for meals, have to eat using separate utensils and in some cases, anyone who comes into direct contact with them is considered impure as well. Aunt Flo seeks to solve this severe and deep-rooted problem in the Indian society by creating a sanitary revolution. Knowledge is power, and we believe it is powerful enough to bring about a radical change in the mindsets of people. Aunt Flo is intended to act as a repository of information for confused teens, misinformed mothers and everyone in between. By providing information on topics like puberty, menstruation, and good touch and bad touch, our aim is to empower young minds so that they never treat their natural biological functions as issues, but rather as a part of their life accepted by everyone- most of all themselves.
