India’s period crisis is a major issue affecting millions of young girls, particularly those from underprivileged backgrounds. Period poverty—lack of access to sanitary products, education, and hygienic facilities—forces many girls to miss school, leading to higher dropout rates and limiting their opportunities. The stigma around menstruation also makes them vulnerable to misinformation, social exclusion, and even exploitation. This crisis not only affects their health and confidence but also deepens gender inequality, keeping them trapped in cycles of poverty and limited opportunities.
