According to some of the girls, the inability to purchase the pads during their menstrual period had forced them to resort to the use of clothes and tissues.
” There are times I have to trek to school just not to miss school, and when I ask for money for pads from my parents, they will say there is no money. So often, I have no choice but to use cloths when the monthly cycle comes. “As I am here, I started my period last year November and I have not used sanitary pads for up to two times I have menstruated. That is why I usually stay at home when I am seeing my menstruation. If there is a place we can collect free pads monthly, I will be very happy.”
