Still today, slum and urban-rural females of our society face a nerve-racking situation during their menstruation phase where they are forced to use grass, mud or dirty cloths instead of sanitary napkins because of it’s unaffordable costs. These poor and illiterate women and teenage girls still remain ignorant about period hygiene. As a result, they have to face severe health risks. By considering various physical health risks in such slum females , a free sanitary pad bank has also been started by ‘Shuruaat’ organization on January 1, 2021 in Alopibagh district of Prayagraj city, which offers free pads to all poor women. So far more than 400 women have been registered in this pad bank. Presently, women living in an area of about 15-20km have become regular members of this bank.
