Menstrual hygiene management remains an important yet often overlooked public health issue, particularly in developing countries, where cultural taboos, limited awareness, and inadequate access to safe hygiene products affect women's ability to manage menstruation with dignity. This book explores women's knowledge, attitudes, practices, and experiences related to menstrual hygiene, with a particular focus on sustainable alternatives such as the menstrual cup. Drawing on a mixed-methods study conducted in India, it presents quantitative findings on menstrual hygiene practices alongside qualitative insights into women's perceptions, challenges, and acceptance of sustainable menstrual products. The book highlights the health, environmental, and economic implications of menstrual hygiene choices and emphasizes the importance of informed decision-making and access to appropriate products. It also discusses the role of nurses, public health professionals, educators, and policymakers in promoting menstrual health awareness and supporting women in adopting safe, sustainable, and culturally appropriate practices.
