I SUPPORT PET FOND 1 GIRL 1 PAD CAMPAIGN

I remember when my menstrual cycle started. I was washing clothes during holidays when I felt something dripping down my thighs, I took a peep and it was HER!
My long awaited visitor.😂

Then in boarding school, it was a thing of pride, some sought of respect comes to you when your menstraul cycle begins. "As teenagers we will just keep asking each other , have you seen ? " 😂

I was familiar with alot of things then because our school mothers will always teach us all we need to know.
They usually say "its an ushering into womanhood"

I had a lot of girl care and didn't have to bother about much.

But do you know that 70% of our girls especially in rural areas have little or no information about menstruation.
I watched a documentary filmed in Accra where girls use "Cloth" as pad. ( in this century!)

Its dysfunctional to Even use "Tissue paper" or "Cotton wool" because it blocks the flow talk more of "cloth"

When they were interviewed , it was obvious they didn't know that its unhygienic to use their cloth and they don't have access to sanitary care.

While in primary | Secondary we had a lot of people who come to teach us about these things.
I can remember a time in secondary school , A team from "Always Ultra" came to our school and gave us free carrier bags. In that bag , There was the following
* Comb ( I remember the colour, it was purple)
* 2 Panties
* A pack of Always Ultra.
* A booklet (This contained information on all we needed to know about purberty in simple English)
