In-depth interviews were conducted using purposive and snowball sampling. Data were analyzed using Braun and Clarkes reflexive thematic analysis. Eight themes revealed three interconnected layers: structural forces (economic dependency and familial control), negotiated agency (micro-level resistance within patriarchal constraints), and cultural reproduction (culturally embedded gendered norms). Findings connect to feminist standpoints and Marxist feminist theories, demonstrating the need for interventions addressing economic independence within larger structural and cultural transformation. 2026 Society for Menstrual Cycle Research.
