#IAmAMenstruator: Uncovering the relationships and product security of Menarche at Humboldt State University (IRB-137) |
Marilyn Villalba (Student Investigator) <[email protected]>
Cutcha Risling Baldy (Faculty Adviser) <[email protected]>
The purpose of this research is to gain an understanding of the relationship menstruators have with their period as well as understand access to menstrual hygiene products at the HSU campus. The research will help identify the problems menstruators face when obtaining and purchasing menstrual hygiene products on campus, to identify the ways HSU is lacking in providing menstruators with adequate resources. This research will provide an understanding as to why having access to menstrual hygiene products available on campus could relieve financial burden, stress, and other emotions experienced by menstruators on campus. Through surveys and interviews we hope to bring awareness about the experiences, emotional, and financial stresses menstruators experience when they have limited access to menstrual hygiene products.

I am working on my senior project where I hope to uncover how menstrual hygiene management and security is an issue at Humboldt State University. In order to bring more awareness to this issue, I am looking to raise funds to purchase pads, tampons, liners, and other products for a tabling event in March where students will have the opportunity to create their own emergency menstrual product pack.
