摘要

月经杯是一种在月经期间插入阴道的装置。月经杯已经有几十年的历史了,但在印度,由于缺乏对卫生巾的认识和普及,月经杯的使用有限。由于它们是可重复使用的,它们减少了固体废物,对环境友好。现在需要的是教育、意识和环保实践的可用性,以便有效地管理月经废物。一旦它被照顾好,任何人都可以很容易地进行绿色转换。因此,本研究旨在评估所选学校少女对月经杯的认知和态度。场景。本研究的目的是评估青春期女孩对月经杯的知识和态度水平,并将样本中对月经杯的知识和态度水平与其所选择的人口统计学变量联系起来。该研究的设计是描述性的,研究对象是来自Thrissur, Nellikkunnu, St. Sebastian School的50名青春期女孩。采用有目的抽样技术选择样本。采用结构化的月经杯知识问卷收集数据。结果显示,2个(4%)样本知识不充分,43个(86%)样本知识中等,5个(10%)样本知识充分。少女对月经杯的了解程度与她们所选择的人口统计学变量之间没有显著的关联。对月经杯持“一般”态度者6人(12%),持“良好”态度者43人(86%),持“极好”态度者1人(2%),均无“差”态度者。她们对月经杯的态度与她们所选择的人口统计学变量如年龄、居住地区和母亲的受教育程度有显著的相关性。研究结果表明,大部分少女对月经杯的认知适度,态度公正。
