• If you are a young girl, you should be already
  familiar with the term 'periods'. This monthly
  biological function starts at the age of puberty
  and also indicates that a girl is not pregnant.
  In most societies where basic amenities are
  available, the girls who are on their period
  generally receive tampons or pads from their
  parents or guardians.
• Thus it makes the uncomfortable process more
  bearable for many young ladies. However, in many
  rural communities in India, young girls are not
  lucky enough to have access to tampons or pads on
  a regular basis. Due to this, they are forced to
  use various materials such as t-shirts, layered
  cloths or even toilet paper to soak up the
  menstrual blood.

  attendance, high dropout rates and ill health due
  to infection. In order to overcome this
  difficulty, many brands have introduced low cost
