Menstruation in Christianity ?

Menstruation in Christianity ?

This is a fascinating page! I found this extremely useful for comparing religious practices surrounding menstruation. I noticed that the section regarding christianity stated that there was not a taboo or need for specific practices. To my understanding, menstruation does have taboos attached to it in christianity. As it states in Leviticus 15:19-24

"she shall be in her menstrual impurity for seven days, and whoever touches her shall be unclean until the evening. And everything on which she lies during her menstrual impurity shall be unclean. Everything also on which she sits shall be unclean. And whoever touches her bed shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and be unclean until the evening. And whoever touches anything on which she sits shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and be unclean until the evening."

While many Christians may not practice these observances, it is interesting to see parallels between religions.
