Adolescence is a beautiful period of life and generally a healthy one. But this is also a period when a person is most vulnerable; the overall growth and development and also the physical, reproductive and psychological changes expose the adolescents to many health risks. One of the most common health concerns among adolescent’s girls in our country is under nutrition and anemia. Morbidity and mortality occurring in this age group is mostly due to preventable causes.
Teenage pregnancies may adversely affect the health of the women. Menstruation is a phenomenon unique to all females. The first menstruation is often horrifying and traumatic to adolescent girls because it usually occurs without her knowing about it. it is linked with several misconceptions and practices which sometimes result into adverse health outcomes.
Menstruation is generally considered as unclean in the Indian Society. Lack of accurate information, absence of proper guidance, parent’s ignorance, lack of skills and insufficient services from health care delivery system are the major barriers. But the adolescents are the future of the nation, forming a major demographic and economic force. Millions of girls drop out of school annually due to the shame on the subject and unavailability of menstrual hygiene management facilities in our country. The lockdown situation has badly hit the income sources of many people who earned through daily wage labor. This has created a barrier for adolescents to obtain necessary napkins for their menstrual hygiene. They are being forced to use the old method.
