Revolutionary Simulator Teaches Men About Period Pain and Cramps

Period pain relief company Somedays has created a simulator that allows people who don't menstruate to experience the pain of menstrual cramps. Videos of individuals trying out the simulator on TikTok have gone viral, highlighting the lack of understanding and empathy towards period pain. The simulator serves as a tool to help bridge the gap in understanding and advocate for better treatment of menstrual health. Menstruation affects 80% of menstruating people and should be considered a vital sign. Additionally, approximately 500 million women and girls worldwide lack access to menstrual hygiene equipment and education. By experiencing the pain firsthand, men may become stronger advocates for addressing these issues.
