A pobreza menstrual no Brasil o tabu e a violação de direitos à saúde

Abstract

This is an explanatory research on Menstrual Poverty, the taboo on the subject and violations of women's health rights. The causes of menstrual poverty revolve mainly around social inequality, since the people most affected by this problem are those who do not have the resources to buy basic hygiene items. The lack of basic resources such as: pads, water, toilet paper, etc. are the biggest problems of menstrual poverty. The taboo, the lack of information on the subject and the violation of rights are also problems that will be addressed. The main results raised are about the absence of distribution of pads, and what tactics have been adopted so far. The method undertaken is the inductive one, considering the surveys and statistical data used, and the bibliographical research observing the objectives, hypotheses raised and resolutions of the problem.
