Menstruation hygiene management is a big term, and access to sanitary napkins is only one aspect of it. There are other equally significant parts which need to be addressed - starting from having accurate and scientific information about the menstrual cycle. So, the first step is knowledge of what is menstruation, how it is just a normal physiological process, and why it is important. This can be done by educating girls, women and families through peers, schools and other awareness programs. The next step is access to hygienic materials, reusable sanitary pads, homemade cotton pads, or even cotton clothes. This also includes knowledge of how these should be worn, washed, dried and sundried, and how women should clean their own private parts and adopt the right hygienic practices.
