Brochure: “Understanding My Body… The First Step to My Strength”

As you begin the stage of puberty, understanding your body becomes a key step toward your strength and confidence.

This brochure is part of the project “Protection and Empowerment of Youth and Adolescents in the Gaza Strip”, implemented by the Social Developmental Forum (SDF) in partnership with the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA).

It provides simple information about the menstrual cycle and the natural physical and emotional changes that occur during this phase.

Its goal is to empower you to know your body, manage mood swings and physical changes, and feel proud and at peace with every step toward maturity — because knowing yourself is the foundation of your health and happiness.
