Background
Millions of people in the UK experience symptoms — yet most do not realise these can be early signs of serious conditions and even gynaecological cancers.
This petition calls for the UK Government to:
1. Amend consumer packaging legislation to require all menstrual product packaging to include clear, standardised information about menstrual health.
It could improve early diagnosis rates saving countless lives and reducing long-term NHS costs.
Turning packaging into public health prevention.
