Period Poverty: Why We Need Affordable Period Care
Jun 3rd 2026
Over a lifetime, the average woman will spend about $18,000 on menstrual care. That’s roughly $20 per month. When 500 million women in the U.S. do not have adequate access to menstrual products, this cost is a serious barrier to basic menstrual hygiene. Our product, SisPads, is a complete, cost-saving solution at just $10 per cycle. This 20 piece pack includes overnight pads, heavy pads, regular pads, and panty liners, reducing monthly and lifetime spending while providing complete coverage. At H2H Essentials, we’re committed to making personal care accessible and simple.
If you know a club, task force, or shelter that would benefit from partnering with H2H Essentials to help alleviate period poverty, please don't hesitate to contact us.
