I don’t know Thailand’s rules, but for many women, menstruation is a big deal. For many it’s a minor onvonvenience, for others is painful and debilitating, especially with things like endometriosis. Having specific leave would be beneficial for many. I’m sure it is at risk of being abused, but more likely, some women never use otz some use it occasionally and some more frequently. I’m sure sick leave could be used elsewhere, but then they would run out for other illnesses.
Perhaps we should consider additional sick leave for all people with a chronic condition, rather than a blanket one for women related to one aspect of their health.

Yeah menstruating is nbd for me but it would’ve been cool to stay out for this UTI.
I have a trans friend (mtf) who has definitely abused these before
I’ve also called in sick when not actually sick. Wow, there’s two of us. Maybe you should pass my details to your friend so we can compare notes.
Yep. This definitely happens.
