Women health and hygiene has been one of the most taboo topics of discussion in our society. The general discussion on this topic usually happens very quietly and mostly does not include men in it. We at St.Vincent Palloti College have tried to help our students with the basics of this topic by organizing a workshop on the Girls Health & Hygiene.

The program was organized by Women Cell of St Vincent Palloti College in Seminar Hall on 8 January 2022 at 11:00 am under the mentorship of Dr. Sunita Pawar. The students from different streams like B.Com, BBA, BCA, B.Ed., M.Com, M.A, B.P.E., Yoga and PGDCA were present. The workshop was coordinated by Mrs. Nidhi Agrawal – President Mahila Swasthya Samuh, where a session was taken by the speaker Dr.Shilpa Pawar, Gynecologist Arogya Hospital. She delivered an informative topic on Menstruation, proper sanitization and importance of sanitization for girls. She also made boys understand the topic and how they can help their mother, sister or friend in need. She also touched the basics of ovulation cycle, Anemia and PCOD related myths.

This was followed by the lecture of second eminent speaker Dr. Sushma Nayak, Pediatrician, Medishine Hospital. She spoke on the Importance of Balanced diet and nutrition in children and adults.

The workshop was made even more enjoyable by Dr. Ganga Agrawal, Yoga expert. She made students know the importance of yoga and laughing exercises.

Women cell has accomplished the program successfully. Lastly, the seminar was concluded with the vote of thanks to all the dignitaries, H.O.D’s, faculties and students.
