Abstract:
The current pilot research aimed to measure the experience of challenges and coping mechanisms with menstrual hygiene available and to assess the knowledge, belief pattern and challenges faced by women while coping with menstrual products (sanitary napkins, tampons, menstrual cups), to identify the menstrual pattern and menstrual products used to cope up with the menstrual flow, to uncover various myths and restrictions practiced and to check the menstrual hygiene status. Using a self-developed inventory, data was collected from a total of 140 participants (70 non-working/pursuing study, 70 working/entrepreneur) ranging within the age group of 18 – 40. The Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient was used for sampling and relative statistics. A value of 0.13 was obtained, which showed a relatively low positive correlation between the non-working/pursuing study women and working/entrepreneur women in the coping mechanisms with menstrual hygiene materials available and the challenges faced by them, which depicted a p-value of 0.342.
