Geeta, a young school-going adolescent from village Satun was horrified at school one day when her clothes got soiled despite wearing old rags/cloth as menstrual protection. Embarrassed with the situation she refused to attend school thereafter during her menstrual cycle.
In due course she happened to attend a meeting on menstrual health and hygiene conducted by AWAG in her village. Amongst a number of aspects that she learnt from the trainer, she was also introduced to the use of sanitary napkins. She gave it a try and is now relieved of the embarrassment of soiled clothes and attends school regularly.
