Menstruation in our country is associated with various myths and restrictions leading to lack of awareness among adolescent girls. Insufficient menstrual hygiene practices are the cause of stress associated with menstruation and reproductive tract infections. Sexually transmitted infections and HIV/AIDS are not openly discussed in our society making adolescents vulnerable to them. Also many adults are uneducated and unaware about the menstrual hygiene, specially in rural & adivasi villages. RC Panvel Elite arranged a camp for Adivasi Ladies of Aarav Village and our Ann Dr. Sangeeta Dake who is Gynacologist by specialization delivered an exceptional informative & educative talk on Menstrual Hygiene and the importance of Antenatal check-up.
