Menstrual Hygiene Awareness

Awareness program on Menstrual hygiene

The Women Cell of MES Kalladi College organised a Menstrual Hygiene Awareness Program on 11th July 2025 to educate and empower students on the importance of menstrual health and hygiene. The session was led by two esteemed resource persons, Ms. Reshma S and Ms. Liji P.V., both nurses from Thachampara Health Center. They provided in-depth insights into menstrual hygiene practices, the prevention of infections, and the use of sustainable menstrual products. The resource persons also addressed common misconceptions and stressed the importance of open discussions about menstruation to reduce stigma. Through interactive discussions and demonstrations, participants learned practical tips for maintaining hygiene, safe disposal of menstrual waste, and the role of nutrition in menstrual health. The engaging and approachable manner of the speakers created a comfortable environment, encouraging students to ask questions and share experiences. The program concluded with a vote of thanks to the resource persons for their informative and impactful session, and to the Women Cell for organising an event that successfully promoted awareness, confidence, and healthy practices among students.
