Hi ... Thanks for your query.
The question raised by you is something asked by many. There are several myths that are prevalent in the society.. But these are completely false and have no relation whatsoever to the health of a person. It is definitely very safe to do everything like washing your head during mensturation. In fact , cleaning oneself during mensturation well is one of the healthiest practises that everyone should imbibe.
Take care!
