Those who watched this only bcz of apoorva like this comment.

[@bhavyamathur1518]

Such a lovely conversation. Led me to introspect about my own experience and how much shame is still attached to it!

[@manjm7451]

Dr cuterus is so thoughtful and well spoken

[@tanyamittal9876]

Apoorva's broadcast members know the struggle behind the outfit she's wearing 😂😂

[@heenamehta29]

Ok now tell me please i missing cause I am busy lately 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@tanyamittal9876]

@@heenamehta29 ofcourse, actually she got late for this shoot and while she was about to get out,she noticed there was a foundation stain on her sweater and beer stains on her jeans. So when she started cleaning it, it got worse and she ended up going there wearing a wet jeans 😭😂😂

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Every student should learn about menstrual health. Also, there are more categories than just ‘boys’ and ‘girls’.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

OMG YAY RENUKA JI ON THE CHANNEL YAYYYYYYYYYYY

[@thatgirlriyasingh]

The thing that renuka mam said about boys being respectful and little gentle towards women around them is so true because I've experienced this in my school and it was so terrible that I can't explain me and friend were having periods and I think it was our first or second day maybe and oh my god our male classmate were on their worst behaviour constantly fighting taunting and all this thing happened around July or August and on that it's was a very hot day the switch board was near their bench so they would switch off the fan that was above our desk then I would go to turn it on and when I'll come back to sit on bench again they'll turn it off they did it for some 5-6 times and after that I gave up because I was having severe pain in my abdomen it was hard getting up and then sit down so yeah it was a very bad experience

[@pragyasingh1012]

great initiative!!

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Also, menstruation should also include queer people because it’s not just a ‘woman’ issue.

[@joyeetaghosh2209]

Bro / sis queer means lgbtq i think lesbain are women also and transman they had sex change but they are biologically female

[@PokhrajRoy.]

@@joyeetaghosh2209 Trans people identify whatever they want to be identified as

[@adinapatel3078]

Thank you so much ❤❤

[@meenachoudhary439]

Lovely chat

[@NitiMehta123]

[@harshakri6547]

The girl in green sweater is so uninterested in the conversation while rest of them were so keen to share their experiences and 🎉knowledge. All she could tell was she was a gen Z

[@meenachoudhary439]

Ho gaya hate karke?

[@Selfdevelopmentstuff_]

She is gem

[@anmolgarg4915]

❤❤ I wish I was given period education at that age
