'7 DAYS GIFT for teens'

Background of Releasing This Product

"Sofy" has been striving to create a society where as many women as possible can live as they wish, and has been promoting the "#NoBagForMe" project since June 2019. In 2020, they launched the "Menstruation Training for Everyone" program, which has been conducted in approximately 400 companies and organizations. Participants of this training have expressed impressions such as "I was surprised to learn about the various types of menstrual pads" and "I realized the need to have a thorough discussion with my daughter who will soon experience menstruation." Additionally, there have been suggestions along the lines of "It would be reassuring to have a beginner's kit recommended by a specialized manufacturer who knows everything about menstruation."

Therefore, in commemoration of the International Day of the Girl on October 11th, "Sofy" brand will be exclusively releasing the '7 DAYS GIFT for teens' gift set at the Unicharm Direct Shop (online store).

What We Heard from Participants at the "Menstruation Class for Parent and Child", Experiencing the '7 DAYS GIFT for teens' set

On October 6, 2023, in conjunction with the International Day of the Girl on October 11th, we held the "Menstruation Class for Parent and Child" as part of the curriculum, '7 DAYS GIFT for teens' set where participants had the opportunity to physically see and experience the '7 DAYS GIFT for teens' set.

- "Until now, my mother has always chosen all my menstrual products for me. But after holding the '7 DAYS GIFT for teens' set, I realized that there are various types of products and it's important to use them according to different situations." (10-year-old participant)

- "I think it's difficult for daughters at this age to consult with friends or teachers about anything related to menstruation. I've decided to have a more thorough discussion with my daughter about menstruation than before." (38-year-old mother)

- "Since I've just started using menstrual products, I thought they would feel uncomfortable and rough. But now I want to consult with my family to find the right menstrual products that suit my body." (12-year-old participant)

- "I used to think that discussing menstruation with children was my wife's role. However, by participating in the "Menstruation Class for Parent and Child" with my daughter, I had the opportunity to learn about menstruation and have important conversations. I learned for the first time that the menstrual period can last for 7 days, and it made me think about what I can do as a man when women have their periods." (45-year-old father)
