Pliny the Elder on menstruation and menopause
In the first century, Pliny the Elder wrote an encyclopedia. While much of it lacked much grounding in fact, the attention he gives to menstruation in comparison to menopause demonstrates an invisibility and lack of interest in menopause in history.
Qualities Pliny attributed to menstruation
if you take off your clothes while menstruating, it can stop whirlwinds, lightning and storms at sea (but it will also kill young plants and vines such as ivy and rue)
if you walk barefoot through a field while menstruating, it will cause all the bugs to fall off the crops (don't do this too early in the morning or it'll kill all the crops too) don't touch beehives when menstruating, or the bees will leave
avoid period sex with during an eclipse because the man will die
laundry will turn black while you're boiling it cooking or doing the dishes will make the pans greasy and smelly
touching a razor will blunt it looking in the mirror will tarnish it
(but if you stare at the back of the mirror for a bit it will go back to normal)
being near a dog while menstruating will drive it mad
touching pregnant horses will cause them to immediately miscarry (if it's your first period, even looking at the horse will make it miscarry) on the plus side, this property of period blood means you can mix it into contraceptives to make them more powerful
anything purple that you touch will immediately become dull: even the ash from burned fabric which touched menstrual blood will make your purples fade
in Judea, menstrual blood can cut the flow of bitumen (even swords made of steel can't do that) relieves gout when spread on it
mix with rosewater and apply to the temples to
soothe a headache
mix with wool of a black sheep to cure malaria put on a cloth and wear in your clothes to cure
yes that directly contradicts the mad dogs thing he wasn't consistent at all
smear on someone after an epileptic seizure to touch facial sores or boils to cure them neutral…
