"The fact Asan donates one menstrual cup for free to someone who can’t afford period products when you add one to your collection is the icing on top of the cake."

@kellyrose Hi Kelly, the Asan menstrual cup makes for a great Christmas gift. For every cup gifted, one gets donated to someone who doesn't have access to safe period care in rural India. Please share your email :)

@LaurenMedlicott Would love to share how @ira_guha started Asan, a menstrual cup social enterprise that is eradicating period poverty in rural India. Unable to DM so please feel free to reach out.

We find the same thing in India with pads 😢
New research carried out by @ActionAidUK shows #Periodpoverty is putting people’s health at serious risk 😰 as financial struggles force them to leave tampons in for longer than advised 💜🩸

Switching from sanitary pads to menstrual cups reduces your menstrual waste production from 14.1kg to 0.06kg over a lifetime. Menstrual cups really are the future 💪
Menstrual cups reduce the generation of non-biodegradable waste by 99% compared to the waste produced by disposable sanitary pads, Dr. Soumya Swaminathan, former chief scientist of the WHO, said on Monday. #menstrualcup #nonbiodegradablewaste #sanitarynapkins

Loved spending #MenstrualHealthDay at the Period Parade in London. So inspiring marching with activists who are smashing period taboos and creating lasting change, across the UK and globally. @irise_int @sexedmattersuk @freedom_4_girls @bloodygood__
