You may be thinking that it's odd I would be discussing menstruation on this channel. And, you wouldn't be wrong. However, I think it’s worth addressing when you have verses like Leviticus 15:19 which says that a woman on her period is unclean.
I mean, the list of other unclean things include people with leprosy, dead animals, human corpses and graves. So what’s the deal here?
What is God’s intention here?
And what does the bible have to say?

Scripture Used:
Leviticus 15:19
“Whenever a woman has her menstrual period, she will be ceremonially unclean for seven days. Anyone who touches her during that time will be unclean until evening.”
Deuteronomy 4:6
“Observe them carefully, for this will show your wisdom and understanding to the nations, who will hear about all these decrees and say, “Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.”
Leviticus 10:10-11
“So that you can distinguish between the holy and the common, between the unclean and the clean, and so you can teach the Israelites all the decrees the Lord has given them through Moses.”
Genesis 3:16
“To the woman he said, ‘I will make your pains in childbearing very severe; with painful labor you will give birth to children.”
Hebrews 9:13-14
“The blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean. How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death,[a] so that we may serve the living God!”
