"Feminine hygiene supplies" is the general term.  They fall into 2
classes -- "sanitary napkins" and "tampons".  I can find the Canadian
French and Spanish words for "sanitary napkin" if you really want me to,
but the nearest package that has info in 3 languages isn't exactly in
the room.

And I find those on the same aisle as condoms at my grocery store. 
Diapers are a few aisles over, in a special "baby section" that includes
baby formula, jars of baby food, and some clothing for infants under a
year old.  And disposeable sippy-cups.  (We buy the disposeable sippy
cups but haven't disposed of anything so far besides one lid that got
cracked, but it's very nice that the sippy cups cost under $1 each.)
