Handle THOSE days with Expert Intimate Hygiene with VWASH plus

Hi Girls, 

Recently Madhya Pradesh Government has declared 28 May as Menstrual Hygeine day and started their pilot project 'Udita' to raise awareness about safe and healthy menstrual hygeine movement along with fighting the taboos associated with menstruation among the society. 

Menstruation in Indian society has been associated with lot of taboos, myths and misconceptions. A female undergoing those vital changes in her body during those initial years is not given proper chance and education to learn about the developments in her body and how to take care of it. Rather the associated taboo and misconceptions makes it a bad, painful and humiliating experience for a girl. What all is at stake first is, the health of the girl due to lack of education on related hygeine. More than 88% women are vulnerable to vaginal and other infections for not using proper hygiene methods.

I could even find several girls in urban and rural areas where girls and even married women lack sufficient information about sanitary and menstrual hygiene. So todays post is an effort to inform and educate all my readers who are aware and can help make others aware too. Some tips on how we can maintain Intimate hygeine regularly and during those period days too.

1. Body wash with Antiseptic Liquid- 

Train your younger sisters and girls and if you are a mother to a girl, tell her to use Antispetic liquid frequently in their bath. Atleast twice a week where they just put a liquid like Dettol in bath for proper cleaning and killing germs. While home remedies like boiling Neem leaves and bathing with the water coud be tedious and not possible frequently so Antispetic liquid is a safe and easy option. 

Voices that WHISPER

Sanitary napkins- How many of us do not know about this? We think we all, but is it true??

So my todays post is about Women Hygeine & Health, which is still a serious concern in our country. Lets VOICE this concern our way- but with a Whisper - one of the popular brand for sanitary napkins. 

A survey on Women's health under cleanliness campaign in Madhya Pradesh highlighted some shocking facts- (source: www.dainikbhaskar.com)

1. 88% females in the region do not use sanitary napkins

2. 70% of the women suffer from related infections and cant afford a proper treatment & even cant afford napkins too.

3. 1.4 crores new cases of infection registered every year.

4. 30% girls leave school as their menstruation starts.

5. 64% physicians believe that sanitary napkins help prevent cervical cancer.

later M.P - Chief minister announced a campaign where free napkins would be distributed. First phase would start with free distribution via vending machines in school, college and hostels.

This is a bitter reality which WE are not realizing. We being the modern women-educated & aware has the responsibility to train and educate ignorant illiterate women around us. 

I don't think we might have even discussed or tried to find the realty behind what poor women in our society are facing in day to day life. So its high time, lets start it from our home; at least with our maids and their girls. Looking into the taboo associated with menstrual cycles in Indian society, our women usually hesitate to even discuss their problems.We need to understand that this concern should have a 'voice' not 'whisper'.
