Women can't avoid their nature cycle of things.  The cost of feminine hygiene specifically pads, tampons sanitary napkins are so costly plus an exorbitant tax added is unfair to the gentler sex. Especially those who are financially challenged.  It's a normal but decidedly 'heavier' problem that becomes more exacerbated when one can barely afford the monthly cost plus tax and has to choose between pads or ramen every month.  If everyone had periods I'm sure something cost effective would have been done by now. The world over needs to approach this dilemma.
