"75% of refugee and asylum-seeking women struggled to obtain period pads or tampons while destitute." BGP recently took part in the government consultation on Women’s Health across the UK, and over the next few weeks we'll be sharing... #Menstruation #WomensHealth

When we're having period problems, it's our body's way of saying "HEY! Something's wrong, help me." Instead, millions of menstruators are given a pill to turn off our natural hormones and silence the calls for help. #bodywisdom #bodyliteracy #menstrualhealth
You don’t have to be a menstruator to #supportperiods, welcome to the August fam! ✨ Thanks for showing extra love to all the features we put so much care into! Especially the recently ungraded box builder 🔥 Check it out at itsaugust.co/products/box-bu… 🏃
Searching for exciting new brands to inspire me, I came across @itsaugustco. What’s awesome about it? The branding, the community focus, and mission to make #periods (more) powerful. The box builder product is also🔥 I’m kinda sad I can’t be a full part of the community.

Did you know most menstruators will lose less than 16 teaspoons of blood during their period? (Even though it seems like a lot more)

can we stop all agree to stop saying sanitary products pls. They are called MENSTRUAL PRODUCTS, as they are for MENSTRUATING. We talk about sanitation when it comes to cleaning sewage and water which can be DIRTY, periods aren't DIRTY. thanks for coming to my ted talk

Some men are disgusted by the sight of period blood 🩸 Some ask for their girlfriends to hide all products 🩸or used tampons and sanitary towels. This is ridiculous - grow up 💅🏾 #Periodpoverty #periods #menstruation #periodpositivity #periodpoverty #periodhealth #stigma
Happy Monday! We are excited to share about this amazing campaign in China to end period stigma! "'Stand By Her': China university students campaign to end period shaming", read more here! buff.ly/3pFeXc3 👊 #periodfutures #standbyher #menstruationmatters #amplify

We all have a few misfits and spare undergarments that we never wear. Why not share those undergarments with someone who needs it. Do Join the #DonateOldBraPanty Movement #DonateOldBraPanty #Undergarments #FridayFeeling #SheWings #SheWingsOrganization #SupportSheWings

So excited to share from our Women and Workplaces study tomorrow at #UNCWaterandHealth. I'll be talking about menstrual experiences at 2pm EDT (4am AEST!), after @NatalieGExum shares findings around sanitation at 1. @JohnsHopkinsEHE #MenstruationMatters
Because, you know... the product just can’t be the product. It’s “for women”

Big shout out to @TeenVogue for taking a deep look at how the COVID-19 crisis has impacted the lives of people who menstruate. With @ubykotex, we have gotten millions of period products to our allied programs, such as @HelpingWomen1. teenvogue.com/story/period-p…

Replying to @MensesMatter
Whispers amongst women, as they hide their sanitary pads in purses instead of openly offering, Normalizing the concept of a red stain on a white skirt should be more encouraged rather than embarrassing. #mestruationmatters #menstrualhealth #periodleave #YOU #moreforyou #periods

I wonder if offering to help another guy who appears to be completely ‘lost’ down the menstrual hygiene aisle is considered camaraderie or just downright weird...? Still maintaining social distancing and all, of course.
