How many pairs of period pants does one person need? It’s not a question one often feels the need to ask, and yet it’s the inevitable query when an email lands in my inbox introducing the “world’s first period Advent calendar”. Unbelievable as it may seem, no one had ever thought to fashion an Advent calendar dedicated to menstrual products until now.
For those willing to shell out £130, they’ll be greeted each day with something different to support their cycle, from light-flow thongs and heavy-flow briefs to “hormone support” gummies and heat patches.
