Dear sir ,
Mensuration is a natural process that happens to the every woman for ages. And the major in India , there is no awareness about it. Use of unhygienic cloth instead of sanitary napkins , lack of knowledge about mensuration health can make a girl 's life measurable , especially those who are new to this ( who hits theirs puberty in early age or school going girls). It makes so many challenges and confusion how to tackle with the sudden period , how to use pads because there is no a sanitary napkins vending machines in our schools.
In my school life , i got my period when I was 9 and it's a early age to get periods. And that sudden period made me confused and blank what to do that time , even hesitated to speak to my teachers about it. And I think it is because of lack of mensuration knowledge and i think if that time there was a pad vending machine in our school like a first ad box or a fire extinguisher , then there will be no hesitation.
And now my niece is also facing this . She also got her periods in her school time and her friends also got their sudden periods in her school times.
Now as a professional social work student I really think this is the normal need of every girl and every women of the society as if now they get hesitate to ask for sanitary pads in public places.
And about impact , by installing a sanitary pad vending machine helps the school girls to attend more schools , helps the family to not get worried about their daughters. It will create awareness not only on girls personal hygiene but also boys also get aware to support their friends , families.
Un alarmic periods , getting stained in cloths are reduced and in our society mensuration cycle will be normalised in this process as well as it will not considered as tabboo.
