This report attempts to identify existing gaps in the menstrual health and hygiene landscape in India and recommends a way forward. It is divided into two parts. Part 1 is an advisory document for all stakeholders working towards improving MHHM.

Menstrual health and hygiene (MHH) is essential to the well-being and empowerment of women and adolescent girls.

This study focuses on the relationship between menstruation and the schooling experience of female adolescents in Peru from an ecological and gender approach.

We conducted a pilot study to assess the acceptability and feasibility of a multi-component intervention intended to support menstruating girls; improve menstrual care knowledge, practices, and comfort; and increase school attendance.

The main objective of the study was to determine MHH situation among schoolgirls in Tanzania Mainland and Zanzibar and ascertain the challenges they face.

The goal of this research project was to provide up-to-date and comprehensive information on the status of MHH among school girls across Tanzania’s primary and secondary schools.

Girls’ poor ability to manage menstrual health (MH) imposes barriers to education and general wellbeing, especially in low- and middle-income countries.

Adolescent girls face a range of challenges that may compromise their chances of completing school or their sexual and reproductive health.

This report looks at how the current implications of COVID-19 is exacerbating key challenges for people who menstruate around the world and provides recommendations on how to include menstrual hygiene management (MHM) within a COVID-19 response.

Educating girls has been argued to be a key contributor to a healthier and more affluent nation.
