This has far reaching repercussions and impacts not only their health but also their education, career and place in society. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60332fbe67c0d20c6f23c723/9a862abd-0f27-4e0a-85ab-8e8e3839e20a/girl%2Bpower%21.jpg Espresso Shorts - ‘Pad’-ucating for Change: Unveiling the Power of Sanitary Pads - As Megan puts it… “The girls are quick moving from ‘girls can play sports during their period’ to ‘its not okay for my dad to beat my mom’.
