      Ok, let’s take a look at those numbers, Jezza. £5k spent over, say, 42 years is £119 a year. That’s £10 for each period. 32 Superdrug tampons cost £1.89. So these women are using 160+ tampons a period. So that’s 40 TAMPONS A DAY. Okaaaay. Yep, seems legit. #PeriodPoverty #Mathshttps://twitter.com/jeremycorbyn/status/1043460281706446848 …

      We must end period poverty. On average, women spend around £5,000 on sanitary products in their lives. A huge amount which many simply can't afford. Labour will provide free sanitary products for secondary schools, food banks and homeless shelters. #LabWomen2018 #Lab18 pic.twitter.com/KEBW4iJxzs

      Or at the none luxury end 20 tampons a month is £1 a month so £12 a year or £480 over 40 years. I wonder how much teenage spend monthly on their mobile bill ? Expect more a month than tampon cost. Should we now give them free phones as well?pic.twitter.com/E5sSlRE0i9

      No, it also includes women who only bleed for a day or two & barely use any tampons. The vast majority of women don’t spend anything like £5l on sanitary products in their lifetimes. BTW, what did your GP do about your bleeding? Plenty of solutions.

          Many GP’s aren’t specialists in gynae issues Julia. They always recommend the pill first which is dangerous for many women, and issues like endometriosis takes on average 7 years to diagnose, and can cause heavy bleeding. Also, there are people who have periods twice a month.

          I bleed exactly 2.5 days and I use plenty tampons. I don't really want thrush so even if one bleeds lightly it's a hygiene issue. And yes we light bleeders also use pads. It's about more than blood it's about cleanliness

          This is a very good point! Most women want to/need to change tampons every few hours to keep clean, it’s a simple act of hygiene and even self care for some. Periods aren’t a luxury, so sanitary products shouldn’t be either.

          As a very light bleeder I made the mistake of leaving a tampon in for a few hours at first - it took me a while to work out it was giving me lurgies. So there's no way i use what a heavy bleeder uses but it's still not insignificant. then there's things like the menopause...

          Like wearing a pad just in case for 10 days because my period was late and I didn't want to get caught out at work. Or when I got 2 periods in one month.

          @JuliaHB1 obviously you don't have to worry re cost. Also never purchased cheap ones. Average bleeding lucky if a cheap one lasts a couple of hours. As a woman your attitude stinks
