        <p>The necessity for sustainable and health monitoring menstruation solutions is underscored by the growing environmental impact resulting from synthetic sanitary products and the restricted availability of early diagnostic instruments for vaginal infections . In our work a new environmentally friendly smart biodegradable sanitary napkin with an integrated plant based pH indicator strip is designed with fusion of Lippia javanica extract for the early diagnosis of vaginal infections. The product twin purpose of managing menustral hygine and facilitating real time monitoring of vaginal pH .</p>
