“Menstruation is not just a matter of hygiene, much less of cosmetics. It is linked to social, cultural, health, educational and economic factors.”

“This is a matter of inequality because it is estimated that at least 500 million people in the world do not have access to products that allow them to go through their menstrual cycle in a dignified and healthy way.”

“Without enough information, we adolescents are frightened of certain situations because we don’t have the tools of symptoms that are to be expected and we are ashamed of what happens to us, of our bodies.”

“I take this opportunity to publicly apologize for all the mistreatment of bodies by the hegemonic medical system.”

“It is important to stop thinking of the menstrual cycle as something only reserved for cisgender women, under a biologicist, cissexist and binary perspective. Menstruating men exist”

“Will menstrual management be another example of policy with a gender perspective, which as we all know is to give mention to women, or will it be an opportunity to finally generate integral programs that incorporate and articulate all our experiences in favor of a more equal society”

“Gender policies are also policies that are good for the economy, close inequality gaps and combat poverty.”

“The entire chain of production, use and management of the non-reusable menstrual management products has a negative impact on the environment to some degree.”

“For this reason, we will continue to fight for a fair and sustainable Menstrual Management Law, so that the sovereignty over our bodies will not be a privilege”
