An example of this is when Bio Business International spread the information that Terra Femme’s tampons contain dioxin, this resulted in a large number of complaints for the product, which instigated a decrease in business (Solomon, 2013). However, there is further evidence to suggest that word-of-mouth is beneficial. Curry’s, Tesco and several…

Everyone is not able to carry out a full term pregnancy. The Cesarean section allows for fetal distressed babies or any unborn baby to be safely removed from the womb. This medical process dates back to the first successful recorded C-section in 1500. A C-section was originally intended to be used when it is impossible or dangerous to deliver…

problem that comes monthly for homeless women is their menstrual period. As mentioned before, not many homeless women always feel safe asking a male for feminine hygiene products. Some may not have access to them at all while on the streets. Pads and tampons do cost money. Even with them, periods come with menstrual cramps, wavering emotions, and stained clothing.

STSS is not the same as the staphylococcal toxic shock syndrome that has been associated with tampon usage. Less severe invasive illnesses caused by group A strep include cellulitis and pneumonia. In the U.S, about 25% of patients with necrotizing fasciitis due to group A strep and approximately 40% with STSS die. About 10%-15% of…

opinion, we should stop making stupid people famous. Today, it is very easy for anyone to be remembered for a very long time, for doing virtually nothing. Worst case scenario, we can even make someone famous for doing something stupid, like eating a tampon or disrespecting their mother. Yes, shocking I know but these two things have actually happened. Now imagine what it would be like if these two figures had statues erected in their name after they died. Imagine if their name was plastered…
