As per World Health Organization (WHO) “health” is a fundamental human right.
When it comes to women, right to health must be enjoyed without discrimination on the grounds of race, age, ethnicity or any other status.
Teaching healthy hygiene habits to girls right from school is the responsibility of teachers and parents alike.
