The Menstrual Period And Women In The Military

One group of women who can greatly benefit from using menstrual management are the many brave women in the military. This is what I've discovered while I was researching this issue [yes, this is how I spend my time!]:

There are almost 200,000 active duty service women in the US military, comprising almost 15% of the total active force.

And here's how the other NATO countries compare:

Country Number Percent

Italy 0 0
Poland 239 0.1%
Turkey 917 0.1%
Germany 4530 1.4%
Norway 1030 3.2%
Czech Republic 1935 3.3%
Greece 6155 3.8%
Denmark 1033 4.2%
Luxembourg 29 4.2%
Spain 6462 5.8%
Portugal 2925 6.6%
Hungary 2957 6.8%
