Page No. : 26-30

ABSTRACT

Menstrual hygiene management (MHM) remains a significant public health concern in India, particularly in rural regions like Uttar Pradesh, where socio-cultural norms and inadequate infrastructure pose challenges. This study examines the menstrual hygiene practices of adolescent girls in rural Uttar Pradesh, identifying gaps, challenges, and the implications for health and education. Using a mixed-methods approach, data were collected from 500 adolescent girls across five rural districts. The findings reveal poor awareness, limited access to sanitary products, and persistent stigma, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and policy reforms.
