General information

  • Washable fabric underwear for women.
  • Usually distributed as a hygiene set with sanitary pads or tampons.  See Menstrual hygiene management kit, reusable pads: MHM kit, Reusable pads
  • Consultations with women and girls of the target group should always guide the selection of any hygiene, dignity, or menstrual hygiene-related items. This will include aspects like size and colour of underwear.
  • Always also consult with women and girls at the program design stage on how the distributions (in-kind or through vouchers) should best be organized, to allow unrestricted access, safety, and an appropriate level of information.
  • It is important to consider that there can be substantial differences in the preferences and materials used by women in urban or in rural areas.
