She is a successful entrepreneur aiming to improve health conditions among females in Pakistan. She is the founder of “GirlyThings,” focusing on launching products related to hygiene for female reproductive health, such as sanitary napkins and menstruation accessories for women at home in an emergency, as feminine hygiene has been ignored in Pakistan from the start.

This company also offers products that some of our women in Pakistan feel uncomfortable buying openly from shops. The company supplies anonymous urgent kits within 1 hour, the same as food delivery service, which includes a disposable undergarment, three pads, and a blood stain remover. This whole need for establishing a company for females recounts from her personal experience when she was on her period and urgently needed these essentials but didn’t find them because shops were not accessible to her because she was in a wheelchair.

She used her speaking ability and tailored her wording to empower women, cultivating confidence and enthusiasm in fulfilling their goals. Tanzeela Khan has written many books to inspire young generations and support the rights of disabled people. One notable novel she wrote is “The Story of Mexico,” a cross-cultural novel set in England and Mexico.
