"Spain’s Catalonia region rolled out a pioneering women’s health initiative [at the beginning of March, 2024] that offers reusable menstruation products for free.

About 2.5 million women, girls, transgender and nonbinary people who menstruate can receive one menstrual cup, one pair of underwear for periods and two packages of cloth pads at local pharmacies in northeast Spain free of charge.

The Catalan government said that the initiative, which is called “My period, my rules,” was meant to “guarantee the right to menstrual equity.” The regional government cited statistics that said 23% of women polled by Catalonia’s public opinion office said they had reused hygiene products designed for a single use for economic reasons.

Tània Verge, Catalonia’s regional minister for equality and feminism, called the program a “global first.”

Scotland’s government passed a law in 2020 to ensure period products are available for free to anyone who needs them. But in comparison with the Catalan program, in Scotland the products are for single use and are distributed through schools, colleges and universities, not pharmacies.

“We are fighting menstrual poverty, which affects one in four women in Catalonia, but is also about gender justice. We are fighting the stereotypes and taboos about menstruation,” Verge told The Associated Press. “And (...) it is about climate justice. We need to reduce the tons of waste generated by single-use menstrual products.”

The distribution of reusable products is also aimed at reducing waste. The regional government said that Catalonia produces about 9,000 tons of waste from single-use menstrual hygiene products.

The reusable products are acquired by the public health care system, which covers the entire population, and distributed by Catalonia’s 3,000-plus private pharmacies. The program cost the regional government 8.5 million euros ($9.2 million).

“I am completely in favor of this initiative,” 29-year-old graphic designer Laura Vilarasa said. “It will give women a product that is absolutely necessary to have for zero cost.”

Spain’s national government passed a law last year granting women with debilitating menstrual pain the right to paid medical leave."

In theory if I wanted kids, I wouldn’t want my grandchildren paying out of pocket for price-gouged basic necessities, at the mercy of major corporations. Remember those free water guys that were all over social media giving out free water bottles and explaining to people that it was entirely funded by the ads on the bottle??? How is that going for them I’m curious bc can we please do this with menstrual products..maybe even basic first aid supplies…..pls

Essential Guide to Intimate Hygiene for Women

Maintaining intimate hygiene is crucial for women's overall health and well-being. Understanding the importance of intimate wash products and their role in maintaining the delicate pH balance of the vaginal area is essential. Let's explore the benefits and usage of Intimate Wash for Women, focusing on intimate hygiene and pH balance.

Importance of Intimate Hygiene

Intimate hygiene is essential for preventing infections, irritation, and unpleasant odors. The vaginal area is sensitive and requires special care to maintain its natural flora and pH balance. Proper hygiene practices can help in avoiding discomfort and promoting a healthy environment.

Benefits of Intimate Wash for Women

1. Gentle Cleansing: Intimate washes are formulated to gently cleanse the vaginal area without causing irritation or dryness. They are typically free from harsh chemicals and fragrances that can disrupt the natural balance.

2. pH Balance Maintenance: The vaginal area has a naturally acidic pH, usually between 3.8 and 4.5. Intimate washes are designed to maintain this pH balance, preventing the growth of harmful bacteria and yeast that can lead to infections.

3. Prevention of Infections: Using an intimate wash regularly can help prevent bacterial and fungal infections. The antimicrobial properties in these products reduce the risk of infections, keeping the area clean and healthy.

4. Odor Control: Intimate washes help in controlling unpleasant odors by eliminating bacteria that cause bad smells. This ensures a fresh and clean feeling throughout the day.

Choosing the Right Intimate Wash

When selecting an intimate wash, consider the following factors:

1. pH Balanced: Ensure the product is pH balanced to maintain the natural acidity of the vaginal area.

2. Hypoallergenic: Opt for hypoallergenic products to minimize the risk of allergic reactions and irritation.

3. Natural Ingredients: Look for washes with natural ingredients like aloe vera, tea tree oil, and chamomile, known for their soothing and antibacterial properties.

4. Fragrance-Free: Avoid products with artificial fragrances and dyes, as they can cause irritation and disrupt the natural flora.

How to Use Intimate Wash

Wet the Area: Gently wet the vaginal area with lukewarm water.

Apply a Small Amount: Take a small amount of intimate wash on your hand.

Cleanse Gently: Apply the wash to the external vaginal area and cleanse gently. Avoid inserting the product inside the vagina.

Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse the area thoroughly with lukewarm water to remove all traces of the wash.

Pat Dry: Pat the area dry with a clean, soft towel. Avoid rubbing as it can cause irritation.

Conclusion

Maintaining intimate hygiene is vital for every woman’s health. Using the right intimate wash can help keep the vaginal area clean, fresh, and free from infections. Choose a product that suits your needs, ensures pH balance, and is free from harsh chemicals. Incorporating a good intimate hygiene routine will promote overall well-being and confidence.
