A catalogue of movies that mention menstruation

There are over 685,000 movies on IMDB (June 2024), but as few as 400 of them contain dialogue about periods. People who menstruate make up around 26% of the global population. We bleed monthly for around 40 years of our lives. But menstruation's representation in cinema sits at around 0.06%.
