Menstrual Hygiene Day 2020 | All things menstrual health with Dr Karen Muthembwa & Florence Kamaitha
On this episode, we talk all things menstrual hygiene. May is Menstrual Health month and May 28th is Menstrual Hygiene Day.
Menstrual Hygiene Day is an annual awareness day to highlight the importance of good menstrual hygiene management and was initiated by the German-based NGO WASH United in 2014.
May 28th has a symbolic meaning. May is the 5th month of the year and women menstruate an average of 5 days every month. Also, the menstrual cycle averages 28 days.
So this is a conversation we can never have enough of because it affects so many of us around the world. I share my experience and also chat with 2 experts - Dr Karen Muthembwa, OB GYN, and Florence Kamaitha, founder of Pad Heaven Initiative.
