The Holidays are Here and it's Time to Donate Some Cloth Menstrual Pads!



I was contacted a few months ago by an orphanage in Sierra Leone. They have 20 girls that need cloth menstrual pads, and we just happen to have the technology they need. We are shooting for 40 pads so that each girl will have two so she wont be without when one needs to be washed.





I am more than happy to whip these pads up at no charge (each set of 4 takes about 6 hours) and cover the shipping , but I could really use some help paying for the materials.


That is where you come in.


Donate just $5 dollars and we will give 1 pad.

We even made a little thermometer. Look how cute it is:

Let's make this happen!


* As a Donor your name will be listed on our Wall of Vulva~Licious Heroines.
* If you are a business your company will be listed on our
Wall of Vulva~Licious Heroines, as will a link to your website.


To learn more about the orphanage check it out. *An important note, we donate pads every year to different organizations. We do not discriminate which will and won't get pads. Who ever has girls in needs and asks is in. This year the organization is run by a religious group and we just wanted to stress the point that we are not promoting one religion or ideal over another. We are uplifting women and girls and that is that.


*If you have an organization that is in need of pads contact us at: VulvaLoveLovely@Gmail.com *

Toxic Bubbles in Johnson and Johnson Baby Products



The two chemicals, dioxane and quaternium 15, are cancer-causing preservatives that release formaldehyde.

What does this have to do with babies?

Both of these chemicals can be found in many of Johnson and Johnson's baby products, even in their staple Johnson and Johnson Tearless Baby Shampoo.

These products remain up for sale in the US despite the fact that the company makes versions without these chemicals. Wait....What? The U.K. and other countries refused to sell any products with these chemicals in them. So, Johnson and Johnson created versions sans the toxic preservatives. But, they are only for sale in a few countries that took a stand and said they would not sell any of their products.

Here in the U.S. the company is still being pushed by the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics to remove these toxins from their products in the next 2.5 years!

So far their efforts have been largely unsuccessful. The Coallition is urging consumers to boycott Johnson and Johnson products until the company removes the cancer-causing toxins from their products.

The moral of the story: Avoid Johnson and Johnson products when you can and ALWAYS check the label for: dioxane and quaternium 15.

Mrs Myrna Monday: Days in a Normal Menstrual Cycle and Causes of an Irregular Menstrual Cycle

Mrs. Myrna Mondays:
Where we answer all of the questions you have about your Lady Parts

Dear Mrs. Myrna, what's the low range when it comes to length of a menstrual cycle: and what can cause an irregular cycle?
Sincerely,
Not So Sweet 17

Dear Not So Sweet 17,
An average cycle is 28 days long, but it is normal to have a cycle that is as short as 21 days or as long as 35.

Here are some causes for irregular menstrual cycles:
  • Pregnancy. This is the most common cause of a missed period, so if you might be pregnant treat yourself as if you are until you are able to confirm or deny. Pick up a home pregnancy test, if the test is negative and you are more than two weeks late on your period call up your CNM or ObGYN to set up an appointment.
  • Stress!
  • Fatigue
  • Caffeine
  • Cigarette smoking
  • Excessive weight loss or gain. While many of us know that a low body weight can cause us to miss a period, having a high body weight can have the same effect.
  • Increased exercise.
  • Illness
  • Travel
  • New Medications. If you have started a new medication and are experiencing an irregular period give a call to your CNM or ObGYN's office. Talk to the nurse and she can tell you if its a normal side effect or if you should come in for a visit.
  • Other causes include: breastfeeding, polycystic ovarian syndrome/estrogen dominance, poor nutrition, chemotherapy, hormonal imbalance, recent childbirth, miscarriage or uterine abnormalities (fibroids/cysts/polyps/endometriosis).
All this being said, if you've had an irregular period don't panic: its actually pretty common. One in five women will experience this. If it happens more than once or you go two weeks after the date your period put in a call to the nurse at your woman's health provider.

Sexist Retro Ads: (Anti) Feminist Fridays

(Anti) Feminist Fridays
Proof that while women are still far from being treated with respect: we have come a long way, Baby!


This Friday's Ad is- I don't even really know how to describe it.
Horrific maybe? And while I still think the premise is widely believed in the subconscious of our culture, at least we are at the point where it's not spelled out in a shoe advertisement.
