Menstrual Hygiene Day takes place every year on May 28 and has grown into a massive global movement over the past 10 years.

This year, the event was commemorated in different parts of the country, with a clarion call of "Together for a Period-friendly World", urging collective action to ensure that menstruation does not limit access to education, health, or opportunity.

Menstrual Hygiene Day was first celebrated in 2014 to raise awareness that investments in menstrual health can yield transformative impacts on girls' and women's lives.

For Jedidah Lemaron, it is a day that is marked with pride as a woman.
