This is what I posted:

‼️Did you know that 5.8 billion tampons were bought in the U.S in 2018?‼️

The average female person will menstruate for 6 ½ years/2400 days of their lifetime, have an average of 396 total periods and use up to 15,000 or more of menstrual products.

That’s a lot of period and a lot of pads and tampons which are mostly made of plastic. ☹️
Most of these used products end up in landfills or the ocean and washup along beaches.

👉🏻During a beach clean up in New Jersey (in 2013) volunteers collected thousands of plastic tampon applicators washed up on the beach.

🙌🏻The solution is to use eco-friendly products. Luckily places like Target have made these products easily accessible and easy on the wallet.

Here are some links to my favorites:

Results:

There were a few likes and a few comments. In the post, I only included links to some products widely available at Target and another brand available online. Most of the people who liked my post were female and there was one male. To my surprise, someone commented that another solution could be to use cloth pads and she gave an Etsy link and mentioned that some stores sell them now too. She said she had been using cloth pads since 2014 and loved them.

Another person commented to use the diva cup. I thought these were both great because I had mentioned that I could include other options but I didn’t and people mentioned them anyway.

Another woman buys her pads at CVS or Walmart and uses the colorful packaged ones (Kotex brand) after reading that tampons weren’t that healthy to use.

Someone who had used the Diva Cup before tried it and decided it wouldn’t work for her lifestyle. She said that although you could save money because a diva cup is only $30 as opposed to buying disposable tampons and pads all the time, that it’s messy and slightly time-consuming to figure out and not easy to incorporate in her everyday busy life (she said you have to be pretty flexible to insert it which may not be for everyone).

Someone else who had mentioned the reusable washable cloth pads but that it’s time-consuming to wash, and that you would need space/ a designated area to wash it. For those living in tight quarters, a room, or a small apartment it’s not ideal because you need a soaking area and hanging/drying area. If she had the time, space, and extra cash to buy a bunch of reusable pads then she would do it because it definitely would reduce waste.

Another person said she uses the Kora brand (which was a brand I had suggested on my post), and another person said she also uses the Natrabrand (I think this brand was the best one because it’s 100% plastic-free) and the L. Pads & Tampons (another one that I suggested in my post).

 

Was it successful:

I’m not sure if it was successful. Some may not have wanted to comment because I’m not sure how many people are comfortable talking about pads/tampons on Facebook. However, I think it was successful on bringing awareness because, for example, some people knew that tampons were wasteful bad for the body to use but not how wasteful it was and what the stats were. I was surprised to find that 90% of a pad is made of plastic. Money and time seemed to be a big factor as well so having a standard product that easily available seemed like a good option.

  2. mobile-mods — это
    замечательный способ улучшить игровой процесс.

    Особенно если вы пользуетесь устройствами на платформе Android, модификации
    открывают перед вами широкие горизонты.
    Я часто использую модифицированные версии игр, чтобы получать неограниченные ресурсы.

    Моды для игр дают невероятную свободу выбора, что делает процесс гораздо интереснее.
    Играя с плагинами, я могу повысить уровень
    сложности, что добавляет виртуальные путешествия и делает игру более захватывающей.

    Это действительно захватывающе, как такие изменения могут улучшить переживания
    от игры, а при этом не нарушая использовать такие модифицированные приложения
    можно без особых неприятных последствий, если быть внимательным
    и следить за обновлениями. Это делает каждый игровой процесс персонализированным, а возможности практически широкие.

    Советую попробовать такие модифицированные версии
    для Android — это может вдохновит на новые
    приключения

    Many thanks for posting when you’ve got the opportunity,
    Guess I will just book mark this page.

  18. I’ll finish with an analogy: Internet porn is like
    fast food. This would possibly imply a bit of fast food once in a while,
    particularly if your fridge is empty. But if you happen to eat nothing but quick meals, you’re going to be unhealthy.
    If you’re trying to have a sense of management, increased agency over your life, and greater shallowness, select to take control of a behaviour that’s truly
    unhealthy – cut out pop (soda, for you Americans), eat less fast meals, eat
    higher, get more train, power yourself to
    read books, take a category, go out and meet individuals, etc.
    There are many challenging changes that you can make that
    will give you a sense of agency and private energy. As for the study,
    it confirmed that males who were abstinent exhibited a statistically important improve in testosterone
    on day 7. For days 1-6, there was no difference, and then on day
    8, testosterone decreased back to baseline (i.e., there was no statistically significant distinction in testosterone when days 1 and
    eight had been in contrast). Eventually the body will get used to that
    state, and the pent up feeling will dissipate and testosterone will return to baseline.
    Without these coping behaviours, it could mean confronting some demons
    and unpleasant moods, feeling and ideas.

  19. you’re in point of fact a good webmaster. The site loading pace is incredible.
    It seems that you’re doing any distinctive trick.

    In addition, The contents are masterpiece. you have done a magnificent job in this matter!
