In the context of women's health, media plays a key role in shaping public perception, disseminating health information, and introducing menstrual care innovations. While traditional media predominantly advertises single-use menstrual products and often reinforces negative stereotypes about menstruation, social media platforms offer a new space to challenge these norms. We contributes to menstrual stigma theory by examining how stigma manifests within digital advertising platforms. We explores how Instagram influences Indian youth in adopting sustainable menstrual products. A thematic analysis of ads from leading Indian brands promoting reusable cups and pads reveals three key strategies: educating consumers, debunking myths, and using social media trends to boost visibility. Our findings underscore social media's role in advancing sustainable menstrual health and improving outcomes for women in India.</p>","PeriodicalId":47836,"journal":{"name":"Health Care for Women International","volume":" ","pages":"1-21"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144761794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Half of these women did not undergo BSE regularly or accurately. Furthermore, the most significant barriers to BSE among these women were lack of knowledge, inability to recognize visual changes, barriers in health services, youth, fear, and lack of any breast problems.
