We believe in bringing together the people that work in our community to have this important conversation!⁣⁣

🩸Reusable period product options you might or might not know about already 💁‍♀️

☁️Disposable period products, like pads and tampons, have been around for many years because of their convenience and accessibility.
🌨Lately I have come across new emerging brands for disposable products and also some enhanced features like CBD. Im so wowed by those, though I haven't used them myself but Im happy to learn new innovative products are seeing the light If you are using a disposable product the best thing to look out for is for the percentage of cotton, the higher the percentage the better for your overall health.
🌦Overall, the convenience of disposable period products lies in their ease of use, wide availability, and familiarity. Tell us below if you use any of these and what makes them special for you.

🩸Menstruation awareness month 🩸

The stats are clear.
Menstruation needs to have more visibility.
Menstruation health is Mental Health.

✨To think that all periods are the same and that we must adhere to a “regular” standard on how to deal with periods is very limiting and makes us menstruators go into overhyped awareness of how we need to deal with our bodies.
Taking time to rest during our period is ok.
Not taking time to rest during our period is also ok.
You do what you want to do as your body sees fit.
Why stop if you feel perfectly fine, or why keep going if your body is asking you for a brake.

✨Celebrating Latine Heritage Month✨
There is no doubt in what we as latine can achieve.
Now more than ever the world has set an eye on latin americans and we have yet to disappoint. It is mesmerizing to see the waves we are causing and this is just the tip of the beginning. Latin Americans have been awoken.

Lets celebrate our heritage everyday 🎉

🩲Happy National Underwear day! 🩲
Here is another alternative for disposable products. Period panties are great for mobility and make you feel very free while wearing them. These come in different styles and materials.

🌹🩸Introducing our Product X-ray🩸🌹
I know that everyones major concern is to be as comfortable as can be using menstrual products and also be sure you are not going to leak that is why I’d like to share with you more detail on how our pads are made.

Jess period pads are made out of 3 layers. These 3 layers must be sewn together to work efficiently for you.
Top layer - This layer needs to be facing up and will be in touch with your v***a and will be the first contact with your flow. While others have chosen to use other materials, at Jess Period we will be using minky as it is extra soft with the skin.
Middle layer- This layer will be doing all the hard work by collecting your flow and it is specifically designed to be antimicrobial so that odors are not generated. This layer is hidden and you will not be able to see it as it is sewn in between top and bottom layer.
Bottom layer- This layer will be in contact with your underwear and is the ultimate protection layer. The materials are water resistant so if by any chance the second layer was not able to hold up then this layer will kick in to give you the absolute ultimate protection.

Hi All, this is Jess from Jess Period. I wanted to take a moment and share why I created Jess Period. There is way more to these 4 slides and in due time I will share more of my own experience with menstruation and reusable cloth pads. I personally made the switch 2 years ago and I can say I have seen major benefits.

For now here I share with you some of the reasons why I am getting deep into this journey.

Feel free to DM me with any questions you may have. I know when I started I first asked many questions before trying them and when I did I started with a set of 3.
