Chhaupadi

Chhaupadi (Nepali: छाउपडी [t͡sʰau̯pʌɽi] ) is a form of menstrual taboo which prohibits women and girls from participating in normal family activities while menstruating, as they are considered "impure". Chhaupadi is said to be practiced primarily in the western part of Nepal, but the same is true for city dwellers also.
