Why Rozy reusable Sanitary pads
A Rozy sanitary pad is an absorbent personal care product worn by woman while she is menstruating. There is a rising demand for quality and affordable sanitary pads among slum and rural women due to lower cost of reusable sanitary napkins and rising hygiene awareness.
Most Ugandan women and girls fashion up pads out of cotton cloth as a home-made and inexpensive solution to the hygiene and comfort needs during periods. These home-made cloth pads are washed and reused but hey lack the absorbing and liquid retention capacity of sanitary pad and hence may lack in hygiene and comfort.
Studies show that the practice of using cloth during periods is associated with very high risk of cervical cancer. Hence, there has a strong demand for sanitary pads that are cost-effective and locally made.
