Not wanting to share a toilet with men at work

I have started at a new workplace and its toilets are non-compliant with the law. Ordinary toilets - 3 normal cubicles, not floor to ceiling, with shared hand washing- turned into mixed sex. So all toilets are just 'toilets'. I have tried to get on with it, despite absolutely hating the idea, but last week the seats were all up with pubes stuck everywhere and piss all over the floor, so couldn't even really get to the loo without trousers going in it. Plus kept bumping into male colleagues where we were all a bit awkward. I hate it and I can't get over the fact they're illegal and I shouldn't have to put up with it. Dreading my really heavy period next week. Wibu to complain? In all honesty I dont think I can, but ffs!!!

Just mulling this over before another day. I cant tell if the building is entirely new, or is old but with a complete transformation. Either way it was built with only one toilet block which has 3 cubicles. Should this have been legally signed off then? By building inspectors? It needed to have been built with a toilet area for both sexes?
