U.S. Media: “Feminine Hygiene Products Shortage” in the United States, and Consumers are Looking for Goods due to Supply Chain Problems
Feminine Hygiene Products are in Short Supply on US Supermarket Shelves (ABC)

According to the American Broadcasting Corporation on June 14, after the “milk powder shortage” in the United States, there has recently been an extreme shortage of another daily necessity that is troubling American women.
According to reports, feminine hygiene products are in short supply on shop shelves across the United States, and many consumers are having to go to multiple shops to shop around for the tampons they need, which particularly affects menstruating women. Many consumers have taken to social media to complain that supply chain issues have led to a dramatic decline in quality of life.
The supply shortage of tampons has been driven by a number of factors, including inadequate factory staffing, delays in shipping and the rising cost of raw materials for the product. In this context, the average price of tampons and other menstrual products is rising. As of May, the price of tampons on the US market has increased by almost 10%, while the price of sanitary towels has risen by over 8%.
Lynn Franco, senior director of economic indicators at the Conference Board, commented that the rapid decline in indicators signals a weakening of the US economy as it enters the fourth quarter, and that this also signals an increasing likelihood of recession. Also, continued inflationary pressures will lead consumers to further curtail spending, which in turn will make the upcoming holiday shopping season extremely challenging for retailers. According to Fortune magazine, there is a strong possibility that the US economy will enter a recession similar to that of 1981 and 2008.
