Periods are a common thread connecting us through all walks of life. That said, no two periods are the same, just as no two people are the same. Disabilities present differently for each person, so whether you have a physical or an intellectual disability, you may find that the traditional period advice doesn’t exactly apply to you.
For some with disabilities, managing their period might be no problem at all, but for others, the simple act of changing a tampon could be something that requires much more forethought and creativity than the rest of us apply to the task.
