Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM)

Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM) involves the appropriate practices women and girls follow during their periods to stay clean, comfortable, and healthy. This includes using clean materials like pads or tampons to absorb blood, maintaining good personal hygiene through regular washing, and having access to safe sanitation facilities. MHM is essential for preventing infections, reducing stigma, and enabling girls and women to participate fully in daily activities, education, and work without discomfort or health risks. Proper MHM is a basic human right that supports overall well-being and dignity.
