Menstrual products: Brittany prepares, pharmacies awaiting stock
On 26 October 2026, the Brittany region announced it was ready to cover menstrual products, as part of a public‑health and waste‑reduction approach. The next day, pharmacies, including in Vitry‑le‑François, were reported as still awaiting stock. Since 1 October 2026, people under 26 can obtain menstrual cups and period underwear free of charge at pharmacies. However, some pharmacies still do not have the products.
