Feeling more comfortable at school

Story from Mugu under Health

The IWP (Improved Washable Sanitary Pad) is handy and comfortable to use. While having menstruation, it was always uneasy to go to school and stay active. At times, I had to miss the classes too. During such time, we hesitated to sit beside friends because of fear of leaving blood stains on the chair or places that we sat. Now [by being able to use IWPs], I feel secure and comfortable to do my regular work and commute from home to school.
