I am Vidhya from Vizhithugal. September is celebrated as nutrition week. In Chithiram Pesuthadi drama Doctor told the importance of iron tablets, balanced diet. Also episode on menstruations and menopause was useful. Many women got good awareness and it was useful for everyone including me. We wish that TK radio should continue to do some useful dramas like this.
Nurse: Dr. Dr: tell me nurse. Nurse: Even i am getting awareness when you are explaining to patients about the disease. Dr: Good. Nurse: You explained everything to everyone. I just want to know about only one thing. Dr: Please ask. Nurse: I am 48 years old. Till now my menstruation has not stopped. Dr: Ok. Nurse: Usually people say at 40 it will stop. I am 48 now and till now it has not stopped. Dr: People will say whatever they feel. For those who are healthy for them it will stop. Nurse: I am perfectly fine. I am eating on time. Its not 40, its 40s. In English from 40 to 49 years is called 40s. Menstruation may stop at 40 or may be 45, 48 or 52. At any age it may stop. This changes from person to person. Nurse: Why is it changes from person to person Dr? Dr: Situation where we live in, mental health everything matters. For a mill working woman her work environment affects on being pregnant. Its just like that. Nurse: Oh ok Dr. Why menstruation stops? Dr: If a girl hits puberty it means she is ready to give birth to a baby. In the same way, if menstruation is stopping it means egg production in her ovaries is getting stopped. What does it mean?? Nurse: It means the time to get pregnant is over for her. Am I correct Dr? Dr: Very good. This period is called as menopause. Nurse: Menopause. Dr: Yes. Nurse: You have explained about healthy food and iron tablets given at anganwadis for kids, adult, pregnant mother, and those who have hit menopause. Thanks to you on behalf of all those women. Dr: Thank you. There is a song of Actor Shivaji Ganesan - Chithiram Pesuthadi. Every girl is like a drawing. When the girl is healthy she can be a beautiful drawing. Women sacrifice for their family. Sacrifice i am not saying no for it. But before that understand that only if you are healthy you can do something for your family and sacrifice for your family. Only if there is a wall, Nurse: We can draw drawings. Dr: My wishing for your healthy living.
