EN: period (of time); menstruation
The ultimate "periodt" moment, literally. It can mean a period of time, like your probation period sa work. But 99% of the time, it's the code word for menstruation. "May piryod ako" is the universal signal for "bring me chocolate, don't annoy me, and yes, masakit ang puson ko."
From English "period".
While it can mean a span of time, it is overwhelmingly used to refer to menstruation.
