ABOUT
Our motive is to provide sanitary pads to all those women who are in need of it, keeping in mind the hygiene problem which our society is confronting even in this century.
Menstruation and menstrual practices still face many social, cultural, and religious restrictions which are a big barrier in the path of menstrual hygiene management. In many parts of the country especially in rural areas women are not prepared and aware about menstruation so they face many difficulties and challenges at home, schools, and work places. In rural areas, women do not have access to sanitary products or they know very little about the types and method of using them or are unable to afford such products due to high cost. So, they mostly rely on reusable cloth pads which they wash and use again.
We pledge to provide our product as totally non- profitable assuring good quality and material comfort. Moreover, there are 9 members who are working as volunteers in this organization

MOST IMPORTANT EFFECT TO KNOW DURING PERIODS
IS IT PMS?
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a collection of physical and emotional symptoms that start a week or so before your period. It makes some people feel moodier than usual and others bloated and achy.
For some people, PMS can also cause mood swings in the weeks leading up to their period. Mood swings involve a sudden, unexplained change in mood. You might wake up in a great mood but find yourself becoming angry and irritable an hour or two later for no reason.
Other emotional symptoms of PMS can include:
sadness
irritability
anxiety
anger
WHY DOES IT HAPPEN?
Experts aren’t sure about the exact cause of PMS, but it’s likely linked to hormonal fluctuations that happen during the second half of the menstrual cycle.
Ovulation happens about halfway through your cycle. During this time, your body releases an egg, causing estrogen and progesterone levels to drop. A shift in these hormones can lead to both physical and emotional symptoms.
Changes in estrogen and progesterone levels also influence serotonin levels. This is a neurotransmitter that helps regulate your mood, sleep cycle, and appetite. Low levels of serotonin are linked to feelings of sadness and irritability, in addition to trouble sleeping and unusual food cravings — all common PMS symptoms.
Mood swings are one of the most commonTrusted Source and most severe PMS symptoms.
