Menstrual Health and Hygiene for Adolescents | Udaan by Plan India
Menstruation is natural, yet many adolescents still face stigma, misinformation, and barriers to managing their periods safely and with dignity.
In this video from the Udaan series, we talk openly about menstrual health and hygiene in a simple, youth-friendly, and culturally sensitive way. The video encourages informed decision-making, confidence, and supportive conversations around periods.
This video covers:
• Understanding menstruation and the menstrual cycle
• Safe and hygienic menstrual practices
• Common myths and misconceptions about periods
• The importance of dignity, confidence, and support
• Creating supportive environments at home, school, and in communities
The video also highlights the challenges many adolescent girls face, including taboos, lack of access to information, and limited menstrual hygiene resources.
At Plan India, we believe every adolescent deserves access to accurate information, supportive spaces, and the confidence to manage their health with dignity.
📢 Let’s normalize conversations around menstruation and build a world where no adolescent is held back by stigma.
