Rising Knowledge About Menstrual Hygiene Management To Drive The Market Growth

Organizations such as the World Bank have initiated various programs involved in improving the menstrual hygiene management among the female population of various developing and under-developed nations. For instance, the WASH Poverty Diagnostic reported that in Nigeria, around 25% of women lack menstrual hygiene management. Similarly, in Bangladesh, only 6% schools provide education on menstrual hygiene management, which results in low knowledge about menstruation among students. The menstrual issues were reported to adversely affect the school performance of one-third girls in the country. Initiatives such as these improve the deteriorating health conditions in these regions and thus are estimated to be a significant factor resulting in the market growth.

However, the availability of other menstrual products that have better properties and are more convenient to use is estimated to limit the market growth for this market.
