Chinese companies apologise for 'shrunken' sanitary pads - BBC Business

Quick Summary:

Chinese women have taken it upon themselves to prove that the length of sanitary pads often fall short of what is advertised.

In 2021, popular feminine hygiene brand Space 7 apologised and vowed an investigation after a woman claimed she found a needle in one of its sanitary pads.

The Paper also reported that while national standards for sanitary pads specify that the products can measure within 4% of advertised lengths, they do not specify the length of the absorbent layer in sanitary pads.
