I would only find it reasonable to take days off every month for menstruation in exceptional cases, such as a diagnosis of fibroids, endometriosis etc. Otherwise, I would think that the standard PTO awarded to all employees should be sufficient for anyone needing to miss a day for normal menstrual related pain/bleeding on occasion. People should be able to use their sick days as they deem fit: And when the sick days are gone, they're gone. Use them wisely.
Personally, I would rather save my allotted time off for unexpected events or emergencies, fun, and relaxation. I'll be uncomfortable whether I'm at home or not. I just bring adequate supplies, wear comfortable clothing, pop some pain medication, guzzle an extra energy drink, and push through it. It's not as if I don't see this coming every month.
