Menstrual health, among other reasons, is a top factor hindering many women and girls from realising their dreams and potential.

According to a research by the Menstrual Hygiene Day, a global advocacy platform that promotes menstrual health, 65 percent of women and girls in Kenya are unable to afford sanitary pads.
