Breaking Taboos With Hygiene Awareness
Menstrual health is fundamental to every woman's overall well-being and reproductive wellness. Practicing proper hygiene prevents pelvic inflammatory infections (PID), urinary tract infections (UTI), and skin irritations.
Golden Rules of Menstrual Hygiene
- Change sanitary napkins every 4 to 6 hours regardless of flow lightness.
- Cleanse genital areas using gentle warm water; avoid harsh scented soaps.
- Wear breathable cotton undergarments to allow air circulation.
- Dispose of used menstrual products wrapped properly in paper.
