To help women and young adolescents girls know about their menstrual cycle and hygiene in my community, i have created a mini menstrual tool called My Period Tracker - a Menstrual yearly tracker to help young women and teenage girls get use to tracking of periods and other details such as the length of cycle, number of days, symptoms etc.
Most Women and Young girls in our communities in Sierra Leone don't have access to digital menstrual tracker on android phones, the culture or knowledge to take proper records of their periods or data which can be very useful for a woman's reproductive health rights. These small details are key as it help one to get total control over their reproductive health or body. We will be tracking the number of women and girls who will get these tool, train them and do follow ups to see if this systems of tracking will help. This tools have been used over the years with the young girls we work with but now want to make it open and available to the communities in Sierra Leone
