As it is rightly said “Health is Wealth”. To promote awareness on this topic Dr Poonam Yadav joined us on 8th September to conduct an interactive session on health and hygiene for classes 6th to 10th. She reflected her profound knowledge on the topic and highlighted how important it is to be fit and healthy. She explained the students about menstrual cycle, it’s problems and exercises to overcome the pain and shared her knowledge how the menstruation starts between the age of 9-13, its 4 stages, and the common problems faced by women such as cramps, back pain, fatigue or weakness etc. She also taught students some of the exercises to reduce this pain such as yoga, stretching and many more. It was an insightful experience to listen to her and learn about an important topic related to our health. The session ended with the vote of thanks to Dr. Poonam for giving her valuable time to the students.
Another session was held on Menstrual hygiene by consultant gynaecologist Dr.Swati Gaur on 29th Sept 23,in which she made the students aware about hygiene and nutrition especially during menstruation.
