Mapping Knowledge, Awareness & Practices of Menstrual Hygiene Among Adolescent Girls-ICR Initiative

India has about 40 crore menstruating women of which about 10 crore are adolescent girls age

10-19 years. India tops the countries in the world with respect to adolescent population. The

number of adolescent girls in India is much more than the total population of many European

countries i.e. United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Spain etc.


Adolescence in girls is a period where they blossom with a feeling to enter the beautiful

process of womanhood about which every girl should be proud of. Adolescence is a critical

moment in a girl‟s life for transition to adulthood. Adolescent girls‟ have multifaceted needs

and aspirations to lead lives of dignity and build for better tomorrow.


This is the period where they experience physiological and emotional changes. This is the time

when they hit puberty, attain menarche and start menstruating. Although, menstruation is

normal for girls and a fact of life, yet many women are uncomfortable discussing this in open.

The issues related to menstruation are too often avoided or not discussed freely, thus, becomes

a hush-hush matter.


On the other hand, there are many taboos and misconceptions attached to menstruation which

alienate and isolate adolescent girls during days of period with the notion that having period

will make them dirty and unhygienic. Thus, girls feel ashamed and face serious barriers to

manage their periods. Often, they miss school and productive work days and fall behind their

male counterparts. There have been reports in leading newspapers relating to instances of

suicides and shaming by adolescent girls due to lack of information/ knowledge about periods.

In recognition of the importance of menstrual hygiene, the Government of India in 2015

initiated Menstrual Hygiene Management programme which is laudable. Since the program is

at the infancy stage, it was considered appropriate to assess the ground realities in the

implementation of the scheme and obtain feedback from all stakeholders in improving the

programme.


In view of this, Invision has suo-moto undertaken a focused cross-sectional study on Menstrual

Hygiene Management among adolescent school girls from semi-urban area of Kalka, District

Panchkula, Haryana, urban areas of Delhi. The study also covered slum areas in Delhi with

focus on out-of-school adolescent girls. The study involved face to face interviews of school

going girls and out of school girls, interaction with school nodal teachers / counsellors as well

as ground level workers such as ASHA‟s and Anganwadi Workers.

The reports has been finalised and is ready to be shared with stakeholders.

Businesses were mapped after undertaking the analysis of status and trends for sectors having

potential of employability for youth. This was done separately for male and female. The
