Problem Statement (Specific to the project and not the race): There is a lack of awareness
regarding menstruation. In India, 23 million girls drop out of school every year when they
start menstruating.
. Out of the 1.8 billion people that menstruate every month across the world, millions of girls,
women, transgender men and non-binary people are unable to manage their menstrual cycle
in a dignified and healthy way.
Poor menstrual hygiene can lead to various infections such as urogenital infections, yeast infections,
fungal infections, urinary tract infections, and cervical cancer.
Periods taboo impedes gender equality in several ways. The most obvious one is the use of
menstruation to discredit female emotions, ideas, and leadership abilities. Women are disregarded
on the grounds of being emotionally unstable and unable to make logical decisions while on their
periods
