Spot On! Improving Menstrual Health and Hygiene in India presents an updated synthesis of evidence, policy developments, and programmatic insights on menstrual health and hygiene (MHH) in India. Building on Dasra’s 2015 Spot On! report, this brief reflects the shift from a narrow focus on menstrual hygiene management to a more comprehensive understanding of menstrual health across the life course. Drawing on recent national data, research, and sector experience, the report highlights key trends, gaps, and opportunities to strengthen MHH outcomes, with a particular focus on adolescent girls, while recognising the needs of all people who menstruate.
