#Periodpoverty refers to a lack of access to menstrual products, sanitation facilities, and adequate education. Research found that almost two-thirds of low-income women in the U.S. could not afford menstrual products in the last year, while nearly half sometimes had to choose between buying food or menstrual products. 30 of 50 U.S. stats still have a tax on tampons and other essential menstrual hygiene products, make it increasingly difficult for osme women to purchase those necessities.
