PA HR151

Designates May 2025 as "Menstrual Health Awareness Month" in Pennsylvania through a House Resolution

Approximately 800 million women and girls worldwide menstruate daily, with many lacking access to comprehensive education and hygiene products such as pads, tampons, menstrual cups, or period underwear

Four in five students have missed class or know someone who has due to lack of access to menstrual hygiene products

An estimated 14% to 25% of women and girls experience irregular menstrual cycles, with higher rates among low-income and minority groups

Aligns with the international observance of May 28 as "Menstrual Hygiene Day," which aims to reduce stigma surrounding menstruation
