FMP: Menstrual Equity and Period Care

Menstrual Equity

If you’ve always had access to tampons, pads, cups or whatever it is you use to manage your period, you might be surprised to learn this isn’t the case for many menstruators right here in the United States.

You Have The #RightToKnow

Unbelievably, no federal law exists which requires disclosure of all ingredients in tampons and pads.

Taking On The Tampon Tax

The term “tampon tax” refers to the fact that menstrual products cost more than they need to because, in most states, a sales tax is added on.

#NationalPeriodDay

It’s time to rise up for Menstrual Equity and end period stigma for good. To get there, Seventh Generation is partnering with PERIOD. The Menstrual Movement for the first ever National Period Day on Oct 19th to stand up for menstrual equity and improve access to safe, affordable period care for all.
