Jammu, May 29: LFO-BH Foundation (NGO) organised a demonstrated project on "Menstrual Hygiene" at Primary Health Center, Panjgrain, Jammu.
It also conducted donation cum awareness programme on topic "Mensurational Hygiene".
Around 500 oxy-biodegradable sanitary napkins were distributed. This awareness programme was organized to raise the knowledge about menstrual awareness among young girls and women.
Dr. Mehvish Sharma delivered an awareness lecture in which she emphasised that "Women would have been the worst hit, as menstrual hygiene is very important to prevent infections. So, it is very important to maintain menstural hygiene to avoid infections and most important is to spread maximum awareness about the importance of Sanitary Napkins. At any given time, girls across India cannot afford sanitary napkins. Instead they use cloth, other unhygienic materials that increase their risk of contracting infections". Vivek Parihar (Founder/Director of LFO-BHF) said "Our mission is to raise awareness on gender issues and bring it out in the open. Through our programmes, we teach young girls that their menstrual cycles are natural, a sign of good reproductive health and is something they have in common with girls in countries worldwide".
Jyoti Sharma, Media Incharge of the LFO-BHF while showing concern said that In India, menstrual health is still considered a taboo subject, leaving women exposed to misinformation and myths associated with menstruation.
After concluding the awarness programe on MENSTRUAL HYGIENE, LFO-BHF also donated Glucometer to Primary Health Center, Panjgrain and the staff of PHC checked the Blood Sugar Level and Blood Pressure among the people present over there.
