India is one of the countries with the highest rates of cervical cancer. Studies show a direct link between HPV infections (cause for cervical cancer) and poor menstrual health.
Most of the women in India are not provided with the basic facility to use Safety pads, due to which women who labor, put sand , leaf and ashes instead of safety pads. After this information, how can we expect from them about their knowledge of menstrual hygiene as they are kept away from all the basic needs.
