Globally, some girls are usually unprepared for their first menstruation resulting in many challenges at home, schools, and the workplace.
In some instances, girls and women do not have access to sanitary products or they know very little about the types and methods of using them.
Some are unable to afford such products due to high costs.
In Ghana, the majority of girls do not have accurate information on menstruation before their first period.
In light of this, “Inspire to Rise” a non-profit organisation held an educational forum at Adweso D/A Basic School at Koforidua in the Eastern region to educate pupils on proper menstrual hygiene, management, and waste disposal of sanitary pads.
