#cloth mentrual pads

[plebeiangoth]

Hi I haven't pointed Tumblr toward my menstrual care shop for a second

It's https://plebeiangoth.etsy.com

These bad boys is waterproof and washable, and if cared for well can last about ten years or so. Also they're black!

Great for goths or if you don't want to see blood

If you order now you'll have to give me a couple days to ship your order, currently out of town on work but not for so long I gotta put the shop in vacation mode. Just to be transparent.

Thank you for looking at my self-promotion, now get back to shitposting

Menstrual Health (3) How to improve menstrual hygiene continuation 3. Access to affordable and sustainable menstrual hygiene products (e.g. menstrual cloths, reusable pads, disposable pads, menstrual cups and tampons) is key to improving menstrual health and hygiene. Yet only a fraction of women and girls in developing countries use sanitary products during menstruationn Menstrual health and hygiene interventions can help overcome these obst acles. Not only do they fulfil the unmet demand for menstrual hygiene products; they also protect dignity, build confidence, and strengthen sexual and reproductive health, particularly among adolescents.

UNIVERSITY CHECKLIST

no caps intended

I’m no university expert, especially as i’m not even old enough to go yet but the whole aspect of uni really interests me, and after doing some research, i think i could actually give some good tips for any university freshers. whether you’re struggling with packing, or need ideas for a personalised dorm room, here is a checklist for stationary, dor ms, clothing, essentials and any other tips.

Dorm Rooms:

in your first year, you’ll be living in the dorm halls with other students, so making your room as personalised and comfortable as possible is important. make sure to check if your university or halls allow you to decorate with accessories, before doing so to prevent any misunderstanding.

Im fucking fed up, honestly I’m so angry. Just read an article that says “most feminine hygiene products contain toxic ingredients”. So not only I have to pay soooo much money every month just to keep my pants clean, I also might die of toxic shock syndrome cos the products I have to pay for are toxic?? This is a fucking impossible situation, I can’t use tampons or mentrual cups cos they might actually kill me, and I definitely can’t use pads cos I work in a healthcare environment 9 hours every day which means I have to wear all white clothes and if you’ve ever had a period you know white pants and a pad don’t end well. Honestly what the fuck do I even do? It’s a lose-lose situation and no matter what I decide for I still need to pay for ugh just fucking kill me

Veganism

I’ve been having a lot of health problems in the last ten years of my life. I’m only 29, and I’ve read up on how to apply to become officially handicapped. I’ve looked up how much a wheelchair costs and walkers because of knee, back, and tailbone problems.

I’ve been fighting eating disorders for 15 years of my life. I’ve been anorexic at 14, and bulimic at 21. I’ve been free of both for 4 years, but unwilling to budge on certain changes that trigger those old habits. I avoid counting calories, I avoid knowing my weight, I avoid knowing my shirt/pants sizes. I’ve been afraid of caring too much. I’ve been stagnant all this time, feeling aimless.

I’m an environmentalist. I know the toll of agriculture on the earth. I’m a druid... and I hold sacred every life. My investment in living and eco friendly life has brought me down a lot of paths. I’ve made changes such as using bar shampoo&bodywash to using teatree oil conditioner to treat my dandruff. I’ve tried mixing my own laundry detergent, toothpaste, and deodorant. I’ve made my own cloth grocery bags of old T-shirt’s, and transitioned to reusable cloth pads and a mentrual cup, as well as using cloth toilet paper. I use metal straws and bamboo cutlery instead of their plastic counterparts. I’ve tried using wool balls and essential oil to replace drier sheets and shorten drying times. I’ve also switched to bamboo toothbrushes.

With my health (mentally, physically, spiritually) and all of these accomplishments in my mind, I feel like I have the motivation to truly make a change. I’m going to change my eating habit. Vegan is my goal. I’ve already started searching for vegan alternatives to what I already eat to test out. I’m going to start the transition. I can become an environmentalist through slow transition, then I can become Vegan just the same.

One step at a time.

The druid in me will sigh with relief for every life I spare by doing this.

I don't post near enough about my shop. BTW menstrual pads are 30% off until the end of June

The pads I make are made with cotton/spandex jersey on top, backed with flannel with hidden laminate behind it, and the core is made with super heavyweight bamboo fleece which is super absorbent! The regular through super absorbencies also have a layer of ZORB to make it absorb more quickly. They also all have four snaps to adjust to different underwear. And of course they're all black so they don't stain.

So they're soft, very absorbent, won't leak, and are easy to care for!

Had a really cool and very vivid dream last night that someone bought out my entire Etsy shop. 😏

Too vivid. Woke up and checked my shop 😢

To be fair it would be really dang weird if someone bought a crapload of menstrual pads, elf hats, and rice pillows all at once. Maybe not so weird if just all the pads went, I mean that would make sense, one would need several.

Anyway, my shop is etsy.com/shop/plebeiangoth

[plebeiangoth]

The sale on my shop is live and runs through Monday! Everything but hats are reduced, and domestic shipping is free as it always is
