Replacement of single-use menstrual protection by reusable equivalents in France 2020

"Zero waste" is a movement that aims to reduce waste production as much as possible in order to save money but more importantly to reduce environmental impact. One of the practices contributing to this objective consists in using reusable menstrual protections (such as period panties, menstrual cups or washable pads), instead of disposable ones. When they were asked about this issue, 13 percent of the respondents reported having already implemented this practice. However, more than six out of ten French people had no intention of doing so.
