Our Story

Sanavay = the ‘healthy’ way

Hi, I’m Tia.

For as long as I can remember, I watched my mum, Maria, struggle with inherited menorrhagia - heavy periods that lasted more than a week. Traditional sanitary products were uncomfortable, expensive, and often failed to provide the support she needed. Medications offered short-term relief, but the side effects were overwhelming.

One day, during a conversation between my mum, myself, and a few friends, we shared our frustration with conventional products. That moment sparked the idea for Sanavay.

Determined to find better solutions, my mum discovered menstrual cups and period pants - products that were not only effective but also reusable, comfortable, and eco-friendly. Mum's mission was simple: to make sure I, and others like me, never had to go through the same challenges she faced. Together, we’ve built Sanavay to spread awareness and empower people with menstrual cycles to choose products that truly support their well-being, while also being kinder to the planet.

At Sanavay, we believe periods shouldn’t be a source of unnecessary discomfort or financial burden.

Our goal is to provide sustainable solutions that transform the way people experience their cycles - because better periods mean better lives.

Our Mission

And this is just the beginning

At Sanavay, we have done the hard work of selecting the best sustainable menstrual brands, so you don't have to!

We are proud to partner with brands that prioritize customer safety and use natural, breathable materials that are gentle on the skin and the environment.

Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond promoting healthy living to include a deep respect for the environment, free from chemicals and toxins. We believe that by promoting and supporting responsible brands, we can help create a brighter future for everyone.

Our Promise

It’s very simple - to help put an end to period poverty. Period.

Sanavay prioritises the health and well-being of those in need by supporting as many charitable organisations as we possibly can.

In 2024, we donated 1% of customer sales to Bloody Good Period.

In 2025, we will donate to Freedom4Girls.

Freedom4Girls is a "UK-registered charity fighting against period poverty. We work to support those who menstruate by challenging the stigmas, taboos and gender inequalities associated with menstruation. We do this by providing education, providing period products, promoting product choice and supporting environmentally and financially sustainable options."

By donating period products, our time, or money, we can support those most in need and make a positive impact on their lives.
