Menstruating for the first time is an important step of puberty, which is when the body starts to change to become more adult.
However, menstruation is not an indicator that a girl is ready for marriage.

Girls and women don’t receive appropriate education about their menstrual cycle and fertility, contributing to a lack of confidence and ownership of their bodies

Birungi Charities NUWODU Tunaweza Foundation🧡👩🦽👩🦯 The menstrual cycle is a natural process. It is a complex cycle controlled by female hormones that cause regular bleeding (periods).
It has four phases: menstruation, the follicular phase, ovulation and the luteal phase.

Because we are opinion leaders and many people will listen to what we have to say, we should dispel the myths and misconceptions around menstrual health.
