Opis

This book is about a study conducted to asses menstrual hygiene management practices and associated factors among secondary school girls in Lira subcounty (Uganda) against the background that menstrual hygiene management (MHM) is still a public health concern globally, and menstruating girls in school environments face several challenges which include a lack of adequate, clean, safe, private toilets with water and disposal mechanisms for used menstrual materials, a lack of information, guidance and support on their changing bodies and insufficient materials for managing monthly menstrual flow.
