What are Eco-Friendly, Sustainable Menstrual Products?

• Eco-friendly, sustainable menstrual products refer to the usage of alternative products during menstrual cycles for the myriad advantages they offer for both a healthy body and Planet Earth.
• Sustainable menstrual products translate to being extremely mindful of the negative effects that disposable sanitary products have on the environment to drastically reduce the plastic waste that ends up in landfills or oceans.
• Sustainable menstruation is a movement that focuses on access to eco-friendly period products that all women who menstruate must have. 

Ujaas, a menstrual health and menstrual hygiene initiative by Aditya Birla Education Trust (ABET), has distributed thousands of sanitary pads in the rural regions of India free of cost in a bid to eliminate period poverty.
