Provide Menstrual Cups FREE on the NHS

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Menstrual cups collect the blood rather than absorbing it. Unlike sanitary pads and tampons, which are thrown away after they've been used, menstrual cups can be washed and used again.

This is better for the environment!
Saves the need for Tampon Tax
They are reusable
More hygienic
