El fenómeno biológico de la menstruación está inextricablemente ligado a una serie de representaciones culturales, que pueden oscilar entre lo positivo y lo negativo. Este artículo, explora las diversas manifestaciones culturales que rodean a la menstruación y analizamos sus profundas implicaciones en la vida de las mujeres, desde la estigmatización hasta la celebración. A través de un marco teórico fundamentado en el diálogo entre varios autores que han investigado a fondo la menstruación como un fenómeno biológico y cultural, examinamos cómo las creencias populares y la influencia de diversos actores sociales, así como el impacto de las redes sociales, han moldeado la evolución de las percepciones sobre la menstruación.
