Menstrual hygiene management for adolescents

Menstruation and menstrual practices still face many social, cultural, and religious restrictions which are a big barrier in the path of menstrual hygiene management.

Young girls are not prepared and aware about menstruation so they face many difficulties and challenges at home, schools, and work places.

Little, inaccurate, or incomplete knowledge is a hindrance in the path of personal and menstrual hygiene management.

Girls and women have very less or no knowledge about reproductive tract infections caused due to ignorance of personal hygiene.

Awareness through education is the key to necessary access to safe and dignified menstruation.

The objective of this holistic sensitization program is accomplished through integrated awareness and motivation to adolescents. It provides them with know-how to handle menstruation, improve knowledge of personal hygiene and boosts confidence by answering unanswered questions through interactive and engaging sessions.
