I keep a "take what you need, give what you can" box in my bathroom. It has all manner of fem hygiene products, pregnancy and ovulation tests, condoms, drug testing strips and other bits in it.

I remember when i got my period i was mistreated so badly by my female family.. I lived with my grandmother so she never wanted to buy me pads and if i asked i got curssed out she would embarrass me in the store yelling about she wasn't go to buy pads so i would have to use tissue and i had a lot of accidents at school which was even more embarrassing because of girls talking shit ..

Incredibly important. Period poverty is present all over the world, in both developed and developing countries. I'm working on compiling research to do a study in my city in the U.S. on the level of unmet need present with regards to obtaining menstrual products. At least within the States, there seems to be very little research on menstrual poverty and initiatives developed to address the issue.

This is where the term “on the rag” originated 😕

I've had to use toilet paper as a pad before, but I'm blessed in that I've never had heavy period bleeding so it actually worked out OK. But I could afford pads! I just hadn't remembered to keep them stocked so it would be like one day max, I couldn't imagine having to use toilet paper through a while period because I couldn't afford any pads! Poor girl 😔

Period stuff shouldn't be so expensive,! Having said that just fyi if you get supermarket own brand ones they can be cheap, also wilko own brand are really cheap, "press on towels" - about 50p or less for a pack

This is such a good point that more people need to become aware of but as soon as you say menstrual products should be free everyone else starts listing all the other things that need to be free but this would be a great starting point.

It's very sad to see that in a developed country like UK having this kind of picture! Even in India, government has organised many camp to distribute sanitary napkins to girls and some NGOs also. When I was in my puberty my mom gave me pieces of white cotton clothes to use and reuse it after washing with soap, though we are not a very poor family but the concept of pads were not so clear and even not available at that time.

Excuse me my ignorance, please, maybe someone could explain? Is it really that bad in the UK that women can't afford a £1 pack of pads a month? Even in my worst times at uni when I had to eat at my friends' and walk home for miles cause I couldn't afford a tube ride I always had a stash of sanitaries at home, it was like a top priority.

Don't tell anyone that, it will debunk the myth of period poverty.

At my school every month we get period supplies, you can take 3 packs of anything, pads and tampons. You can take a mix of anything

But u can get pads for a quid at pound shops..

For me, I haven't gotten mine, but my mom has some products (only 3 heavy flow pads and 1 light flow pad, menstrual discs, and a couple of tampons. I feel bad for her because she is trying to make me feel like someone special as I get my period. She went through a tough time when she was younger and got her period. She never got to get pads from her mom so she had to get some for herself, and she would leak a lot without her mom getting her pads. It was so sad to hear that from my mom and I asked her in Target one day if she was going to get some pads and stuff for her cylce cause she had gotten me liners. She disagreed and said "I just have to work with what I have." I was so sad inside and i wish I had the money to get her some (in which I have 70 dollars etc with coins). I may get her some, when I get my period, bring my wallet so she can buy mine and I get give her money for hers! I'd do anything for my mom to see her happy.

I frequently buy extra sanitary products at the super market to put in the donation bin to go to families struggling to buy hygiene products. I know the frustration of being without a period product when I have an unexpected early period. But to be without products every month must be hell

We are lucky in Australia its around $4-8 for pads and tampons.

We experience the fact that when we were actually really extremely poor we couldn't even afford feminine products we had to actually cut up clothing to use. And I'm menstruating right now so that's kind of why I'm not going anywhere

That a nice boy

Use menstrual cups .it's economical

So why hasn't some super smart, MIT schooled, female engineer invented the 5 cent pad?

I mean buying that much toilet paper... isn’t that the same price as a pack of pads

I am not a feminist - but i do belive if men had the same problem the products would be free allready in the 1960ths...

I guess! Mantrual products are now cheaper enough!! And she was Like, has everything and Other Things then Necessity!! Her Mom Can Buy Pads! If They would have done less Expense!

They should be FREE, home delivered. and so should condoms.

pads would be free

"Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, you and your entire household." (Bible - Acts 16:31)

Packets of sanitary towels are as little as 30 and good quality ones are as little as 50p. How come the girl in the video has a phone (which probably is on a contract, nice jewellery) and a very nicely decorated bedroom, but, apparently cannot afford under a pound a month for sanitary wear? The issue is poor budgeting of the adults, but, we aren't allowed to talk about that are we. Why am I so cynical? Being brought up in a single parent family on benefits with a mother, sister and myself all having periods and yet, I cannot ever recall going without STs, they were considered more essential than jewellery, make up and most other things that we wanted, those things came when we got ourselves a Saturday job, but, didn't need and there were lots of working class families who paid for the necessities first and anything that may have been left over went on nice, but, not vital things. Ask any woman over 40 if she ever went without sanitary towels or tampons growing up and the answer will be 'no' and the irony is that they are cheaper now in real terms than when I was growing up. Period poverty is a myth, it's people not wanting to pay for the boring stuff and conning good hearted people into paying for it instead.
