Speciallady Awareness conducted a series of outreach programs across Senior High Schools in the Ashanti Region to empower young women and promote reproductive health rights.

The initiative, held from 24th to 27th September 2024, aimed to educate female students on the importance of menstrual hygiene and reproductive health.

The organization visited schools such as St. Louis Senior High School, JA Kuffour SHS, Kumasi Wesley Girls High School, Heman D/A Primary School, Heman Roman Catholic Primary & JHS, and Heman Methodist Model School.

Over 4,000 female students benefited from educational sessions and the donation of sanitary pads, helping them continue their education without interruption.

The outreach sought to dispel myths surrounding menstruation and provide students with the knowledge to manage their menstrual health.

It also addressed key reproductive health topics, including early symptoms of disorders and the importance of seeking medical attention.

Adolescence is a critical period for understanding one’s body, yet many students are unfamiliar or uncomfortable discussing reproductive health.

Speciallady Awareness broke through these barriers by delivering comprehensive, age-appropriate information on reproductive health.

Topics covered included menstrual health, with a focus on disorders like endometriosis and uterine abnormalities, which are often overlooked in teenagers.
