Every girl dreads it—that pesky time of the month that we have to be super careful not to wear our cutest underwear or any light colored bottoms. Every girl hates when her Aunt Flo comes to visit, and no girl enjoys riding the crimson wave. If there are any guys reading this, and are confused as to what I’m talking about, I mean our periods. If you’re wondering why I’m writing about periods, because, to be honest, bleeding for a week straight from our lady parts every month is a little gross, it’s because I want to introduce you all to the greatest thing since sliced bread, Monthly Gift.
Monthly Gift is a brand new company that sends women monthly care packages filled with pads, tampons, and best of all, chocolate (because who doesn’t crave chocolate during their time of the month?) just in time for our periods! Here’s how it works: You sign up on their website and customize your package, also known as your “Little Black Box.” There are multiple options of packages. Don’t really use pads? You can select a package with just tampons. Don’t really feel comfortable using tampons? Select a package with pads and panty liners! Monthly Gift asks for information about your period, such as what your flow is like and how many days you usually have between periods. This ensures you receive products that will take care of your flow and the package will reach you each month, just in time for your period.
There are three different types of prescriptions offered at Monthly Gift. You can choose a yearly subscription of 12 packages at $10 a package, a 6-month subscription of 6 packages at $12 a package, or a month-to-month subscription for $13 a package. Whatever option you choose, Monthly Gift will ensure your package is unique to you and your period!
In addition to this awesome service, Monthly Gift also had a free app for both iPhones and Androids that helps you track your period! It allows you to customize your settings of when you start your period, how long it lasts, what your symptoms were like, and any other notes you’d like to make. As well as tracking your period, it also tracks your ovulating schedule, which is helpful if you are trying to get pregnant, or avoiding pregnancy.
Monthly Gift is created by women, for women, so you will never have to worry about running out to a 24-hour drug store when you realize you’d just used your last tampon! Monthly Gift has you covered.
