These come in a recyclable box and have a biodegradable wrapper. Over the years, reluctance to discuss menstruation in public has hindered product development progress, and it has been difficult for new companies to acquire funding. Indeed, when Dame co-founders Celia Pool and Alec Mills appeared on Dragon’s Den in 2017 to pitch their period subscription service, entrepreneur Peter Jones said he felt "very uncomfortable", while Evan Davis noted: "It may be counterintuitive to launch a product half the population may never have use for."
