Pad Woman Laad Lohar who now resides in the village of Ramnagar, Udaipur, is a descendant of the clan. Though Pad Woman Laad was always keen on learning and wanted to go to a school, her family was not supportive of the idea, mainly owing to the onset of her menstrual cycle. As time went by, she realized that she had missed the bus. That’s when Laad decided to prevent such incidents from recurring within her community. Talking about menstruation is still a taboo in several parts of India. Even mothers keep it very hush-hush and do not open up about the natural process of bleeding with their daughters. This, in turn, acts as a barrier in young girls attaining good menstrual health, and attending school regularly. To fix this, Pad Woman Laad Lohar began discussing periods with girls in and around Ramnagar.
