Approximately, 60% of women in India suffer from either vaginal or urinary tract disease and infections every year, due to poor menstrual hygiene. But now as the awareness around intimate hygiene is increasing, there’s been a considerable change in these numbers. Consequently, rewarding the growth of the feminine hygiene market.

Growth Drivers

 

The elevating awareness towards feminine hygiene

The growing numbers regarding the awareness amongst consumers regarding menstrual hygiene have been increased drastically in the past decade. This may be because there’s been a hike in the female populations working outside their homes and earning for their families. Additionally, the change in the treatment of women at workplaces with the provision of equal pays and opportunities has been a great driving force. For more women to get encouraged, work hard, and eventually be more outspoken about their issues like poor hygiene conditions, etc. The expanding female literacy rate across rural and urban areas has also played a significant role in the adoption of hygienic practices during menses. Henceforth, with the rising literacy rates and the government initiatives that distribute free sanitary pads primarily in rural parts of India, the feminine hygiene sector in India has begun to swell in a much faster manner. For example, in 2018, the Odisha government launched 'Khushi,' a scheme to provide free sanitary napkins to government and government-aided schools across the state and benefit approximately 17 lakh girls in which most of the census belonged to the underprivileged portion of the society.

 

Sanitary napkins are driving the market

The ease of availability and abundance of options for sanitary napkins has encouraged the market. As they are present in various packaging sizes and price ranges with different types of absorption technologies, throughout India. All of it had captured the interest of women from different economic groups and thereby has driven the sales of sanitary napkins across the country. However, the country is witnessing an increasing number of promotions and educational sessions, due to the rising prominence of social media and the various initiatives taken by the government and NGOs to increase awareness about the benefits of using menstrual hygiene products, talking openly about the issues and practicing the use of sanitary napkins. It all has led to making the sanitary napkins more affordable and accessible, cause of which the Government of India, in 2019, proposed for Jan Aushadhi Suvidha Oxo-Biodegradable Sanitary Napkins with prices as low as INR 2.5 per pad. 

 

Restraints

 

Taboo towards the feminine hygiene in remote or less literate

Even though the Indian government has launched various awareness programs throughout the country about menstrual hygiene. The topic of menstruation continues to be a taboo subject in many remote areas and in localities with low literacy rates. As a result of this, women have grown reserve, when it comes to buying feminine hygiene products and prefers to suffer in silence. They avoid buying these products, be it from pharmacies or local shops. This case is especially seen in a rural area, where women are often less literate or not seen as equals. However, a larger population of women are there in urban areas supporting market growth who are buying the feminine hygiene products to compensate, but the fact that rural areas are getting behind. Still lags the relevant market a lot. Causing a considerable loss.

 

Impact of COVID 19 on India Feminine Hygiene Market

 

With the increasing Covid-19 infections taking place globally, the alarming rates regarding the shortage of essential life-saving devices and other essential medical supplies are persistent. With that, the need for such hygiene products has not hindered, but the fact that COVID has struck populations with job-lessness, shutdowns, etc. which could all lead to an increased gap between the demand and supply chain in many regions of this particular market. Therefore, to fill the gap, there must be some factors that would become more visible in the report further.
