Working dedicatedly with menstruation for the last 9+ years at Wreetu, has given me many things. Going from plain lands to hill tracks to haors to conduct awareness and educational sessions on puberty, menstruation and adolescence health, the opportunity to observe and interpret, reflect and adjust took me through a journey of deeper understanding of the cultural similarities, differences and varieties of the narration of menstruation.

Addressing all these were not an easy task through our work but I tried in many forms and formats to battle the myths, misinformation and harmful narration that exist in our society making period as taboo.

One of these efforts is the development of different types of knowledge products on menstruation.

The first I came to work with and authored is 'Girls Puberty Guide'. This is an illustrated story-based book on girls’ growing up with contextual presentation, friendly language and cheerful images. This is the first and only complete book in Bangla language on girls period, puberty and growing up.

This book covers topics starting from all relevant information onset to puberty, physical, psychological and social emotions that affect us at that time. Biological logics for period or menstruation, healthy period management tools and tips, food habits, physical exercise to relieve period pain and all other significant information on puberty and menstruation.

Since its first publication in 2019, we have printed and distributed 35000+ copies around the country.

This book is widely appreciated by the girls, parents, teachers and community. Every year, many local NGOs, INGOs, youth-led organizations and community driven groups are making partnerships with us, purchasing the books and helping thousands of Bangladeshi girls to grow with confidence.

Girls need the right information at the right time and onset to puberty or the menarche is the right fit age for that. If you have programme participants of 9-15 years old girls, committed to uplift their inner strength, giving them the puberty and period education is must.

Wreetu supported People and Rebuilding Communities (SPaRC) with Wreetu Comic Book and Wreetu Reusable Sanitary Napkin to distribute in a session on menstrual hygiene management in celebration of Menstrual Hygiene Day in early June in Rangamati.

In places Chittagong Hill Tracts, where proper communication is a struggle, many young people are left behind-especially when it comes to education and menstrual health. Taboos and misinformation still dominate.

The session brought together 72 curious young minds, aged 6–23, ranging form students of primary school to college. The session was led by Arpa Dewan and Purna Chakma, and supported by SPaRC volunteers: Subarna Tanchangya, Urmi Chakma, Bappi Chakma, and Sumon Chakma. We were also honoured by the presence of the library founders, community guardians, and proud parents. A warm welcome was
delivered by our Project Coordinator, Purna Chakma.

The session was organised to combat the misinformation related to Menstrual health and Sexual and Reproductive Health. Young people aged between 6-23 years old, children along with their parents and grandparents attended the session.

Wreetu thanks to SPaRC and the team for their responsible organization of the session and we look forward to organize more such impactful events in the days ahead.

খুব ইনফরমালভাবে আপারা তাদের অভিজ্ঞতা জানাচ্ছেন। কখনো নাকি কাঁচিও ধরেনি উনারা একটা আস্তো জামা বানিয়ে ফেললেন, এটা তাদের জন্য অনেক বড় এচিভমেন্ট ছিল।
