Making a period emergency bag/kit

One of the worst things is getting your period unexpectedly with nothing to help if that's in school or work or even if you are just out at a friend or on a road trip, but no matter where it happens or even if it's expected it is always ideal to have a period kit ready to go that can be in your handbag or backpack.

It is very easy to make this on a budget as well.

what you will need:
  • Pain killers to take the edge off if needed
  • Sanitary products (whatever you use, reusable products, tampons, pads, or even a period cup or two.)
  • Spare pair of underwear
  • A snack 
  • Sanitary wipes to clean up
  • Bag for used products (for if you are somewhere you cant dispose of disposable sanitary products or to store used products to take home to clean if it's reusable)
  • Bag to store everything in so its easy to grab
  • hand sanitiser for if you get blood on your hands and need to clean up quick
Of course, if you think of anything else that could be useful then add that in as well this is just what I found helpful.

Do you have a period bag that hasn't something else you feel is a must-have? let me know in the comments.

FAQ about Endometriosis

1:  How common is Endometriosis?
