A feminine hygiene storage unit includes a tampon section and a plunger section. Both sections are generally cylindrical and are coaxial to one another. The tampon section has a plunger end, an expulsion end, and a tampon compartment. The tampon compartment contains a tampon. The plunger section has a tampon end, a distal end, and at least one plunger compartment. The plunger section has a slightly smaller diameter than the tampon section. The plunger section is adapted to slide into the tampon section, expelling the tampon. The plunger compartment is adapted to contain a variety of menstrual products, such as a panty liner, a sanitary napkin, a moistened towelette, a tampon disposal bag, or a pharmaceutical composition for relief of menstrual symptoms.
