For many people in prison, getting their periods are far more than just "that time of the month." For menstruators on the outside, periods are often little more than an inconvenience, but in prison, limited access to pads and tampons can make menstruation not only uncomfortable, but humiliating. Luckily, that may all be about to change.

According to a new memo from the Bureau of Prisons, federal prisons will now provide pads and tampons to inmates free of charge. This, Sen. Corey Booker's office confirmed according to Refinery29, is a change from the norm, breaking from the federal system's previous inconsistent and expensive provision of menstrual products.

Having your period can be uncomfortable, embarrassing and challenging. So I appreciate institutions that are able to support those who have their periods in alleviating a bit of the stress! #period #publichealth #support #community #freepads #freetampons #thisisfeminism
