This resolution aims to recognize the profound impact that the stigmatization of menstruation has on the lives of women, girls, and all people who menstruate. It expresses strong support for the designation of May as "National Menstrual Health Awareness Month" to address these critical issues. The resolution highlights that menstrual health is an integral part of overall well-being and is intrinsically linked to human dignity, affecting rights such as education and freedom from discrimination. The proposed "National Menstrual Health Awareness Month" seeks to achieve several key goals. These include normalizing menstruation as a healthy biological process, eliminating period stigma, and educating young people about menstrual health management. It also aims to support the development of new standards for menstrual health education and care, while improving access to treatment and information for conditions like dysmenorrhea, fibroids, and endometriosis. Furthermore, the resolution acknowledges the vital importance of ensuring access to appropriate menstrual products and safe, private sanitation facilities in both schools and workplaces. It emphasizes promoting health equity by addressing negative stigmas and expanding clinical research and education on various menstrual health conditions, including menopause. Ultimately, the resolution frames investment in menstrual health as an investment in gender equity and economic empowerment.
