Checking the ingredients in menstrual products is just as important as checking what’s in your food. A woman uses over 12,000 tampons or pads in her lifetime, and unfortunately, most conventional products contain toxic chemicals that can be absorbed through the delicate vaginal tissue, affecting hormonal balance, fertility, and overall health.

Toxins Found in Conventional Menstrual Products
🚨 Rayon/Viscose Rayon➡ Made from bleached wood pulp using a 14-step chemical process➡ Increases absorbency but has been linked to Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS)
🚨 Non-Organic Cotton➡ Considered one of the world’s dirtiest crops, using 16% of all insecticides globally➡ 7 out of the top 15 pesticides used on cotton are known carcinogens
🚨 Chlorine Bleaching➡ Used to make tampons & pads ultra-white➡ Creates dioxin, a toxic carcinogen & endocrine disruptor➡ Linked to hormonal imbalances, PCOS, fertility issues, thyroid conditions, endometriosis, and cancer
🚨 Polyester➡ A synthetic petroleum-based fiber found in many conventional pads
🚨 Fragrances➡ Artificial scents that contain hormone-disrupting chemicals
