Table 5 Implications for clinical practice for nursing caring
From: Traditional menstruation practices among Nepalese women living in Japan
Promoting menstrual hygiene management (MHM) is a shortcut to eliminating prejudices, misunderstandings, and unhealthy behaviors surrounding traditional menstruation practices |
To promote MHM, it is necessary to prepare a supportive environment for girls and women |
To eliminate discrimination against menstruation and reduce the enforcement of traditional menstrual practices in Nepal, it is necessary to enact ordinances on reproductive health rights and MHM related to traditional menstruation practices |
As a public policy in the school education and health section, it is necessary to train specialists (teachers and health workers) to establish positive social norms |
It is necessary for schools and health posts to play a central role in promoting MHM education, including the rights of girls and women to participate in decision-making and in obtaining information |
