What is International Menstrual Health Day?
💞💞International Menstrual Health Day💞💞 is observed every year on May 28. It’s also called "Menstrual Hygiene Day"💓.
Why May 28💓?
→ May is the 5th month, and many people bleed for an average of 5 days. 28 = average cycle length. Clever, right? 📅
Why it exists:💓 💓
1. Break the stigma
→ In many communities, periods are still treated as dirty, shameful, or taboo. The day starts conversations to normalize them.
2. End period poverty
→ Millions of girls miss school because they can’t afford pads, tampons, or pain meds. MH Day pushes for free/affordable products.
3. Education
→ Teach everyone girls and boys about how periods work, so there’s less teasing and more support.
4. Health + dignity
→ Poor menstrual hygiene can lead to infections. The day promotes access to clean water, toilets, and health info.
TODAY WE SAT THAT🚨🚨🚨🚨...... No girl should miss school, feel ashamed, or risk her health because she has a period. It happens and Menstrual Health is not only just a women issue but it is a societal issue🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
That’s why May 28 exists💓💓💓.
