Abstract

Framing menstrual health as a human right promotes the health and wellbeing of women, adolescent girls, and people who menstruate. It upholds human dignity and prevents discrimination.2 Menstrual health is often seen solely as a component of sexual and reproductive health, adolescent education programmes, or water, sanitation, and hygiene. Yet it is a cross-cutting issue that needs to be integrated and made mainstream in global policies that capture health, work, education, contextual and cultural norms, and broader society.
