Half of the world's population goes through menstruation at some point, yet periods remain a taboo topic for most people. We invited six men down to our studios to discuss periods and the products we use to get through them. So how much did they know prior to the conversation? Watch and see.

A big thank you to Tampax UK for donating tampons for this experiment. We will be donating all unused tampons to homeless shelters around the country.
