This leaves people suffering in silence, and stops them from enjoying exercise, activities, and living life to the full. It can be very distressing and leave a major emotional effect on the sufferer.

Globally, 65 million girls are not in school. 17 million girls of primary school age will probably never attend school in their lifetimes.
