Your vagina is one of your most delicate organs, yet many conventional pads and tampons contain harmful chemicals that can upset its natural pH levels, potentially leading to TSS or even TMI (Transient Sexual Sensation Syndrome).

Non-toxic period products offer relief by omitting irritating components, like fragrances, chlorine bleach and plastic components. Furthermore, these eco-friendly solutions feature sustainable materials like organic cotton that is free from pesticides.

They’re made from organic cotton

Organic tampons differ from conventional versions by being constructed of 100% cotton instead of rayon for their core, which reduces exposure to chemicals that could irritate vaginal canal and uterus. Furthermore, this organic cotton is grown without pesticides to help safeguard both environment and farmer by which its grown.

Many women believe organic tampons are less likely to cause toxic shock syndrome (TSS). Unfortunately, recent research suggests otherwise and any type of tampon may increase your risk if not used according to product instructions or left in too long.

Non-toxic tampons and pads are free from perfume, synthetic fibers, chlorine bleach and any dyes; are hypoallergenic; made with eco-friendly and biodegradable materials sourced sustainably and eco-friendly production practices; plus are made by woman-owned brands like LOLA that boast no plastic applicators or dyes – plus have an accessible ingredient list and support Period Equity advocacy efforts.

They’re non-toxic

Selecting non-toxic period products reduces exposure to toxic metals such as PFAS, heavy metals and phthalates that may mimic hormones that regulate your endocrine system and lead to health problems. Furthermore, non-toxic tampons don’t contain perfumes and rough synthetic materials which could irritate skin further.

Organic tampons may not always be safer than their non-organic counterparts. One study demonstrated that organic cotton-cored tampons with measurable estrogen activity, and another report demonstrated similar dioxin levels between organic and regular tampons – both chemicals are known endocrine disruptors.

To identify non-toxic tampons, look for third-party certifications like GOTS or Oeko-Tex Standard 100. Or opt for brands committed to transparency like Lola which lets you mix and match absorbencies for zero waste periods; Oi and Period Pants both feature organic cotton cores with cardboard applicators for budget-conscious options that meet these criteria.

They’re eco-friendly

By purchasing eco-friendly menstrual products like organic pads and tampons, such as organic pads and tampons, you are also helping the earth. Non-organic pads take an estimated 1 million years to completely decompose while organic ones biodegrade in 2 years – plus organic cotton farming doesn’t use harmful pesticides that harm bees, birds and insects that are essential parts of our ecosystems.

Many conventional tampons and pads contain toxic chemicals such as phthalates, dioxins, VOCs, fragrance ingredients and heavy metals (Women’s Voices for the Earth 2024 study). Although certain brands may be better than others, you can make an impactful statement by selecting fragrance free tampons with no plastic applicators and selecting ones without plastic applicators applicators.

However, it’s important to keep in mind that organic tampons don’t offer any added safety when it comes to Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS). Your risk depends on using the lowest absorbency tampon for your flow and changing it regularly.

They’re comfortable

Non-toxic pads and tampons can help relieve painful periods by reducing irritation. Furthermore, they’re more comfortable than their synthetic counterparts and can even be worn during activities like yoga or running without discomfort. Furthermore, non-toxic options are better for the environment than their synthetic alternatives as conventional products contain pesticides which contaminate waterways and soil; this has devastating consequences for wildlife as well as your own health.

Organic tampons tend to be more comfortable than their conventional counterparts because they don’t contain chemicals that might irritate vaginal tissue. But it is important to remember that even these organic options may still contain heavy metal contaminants like lead and arsenic that could potentially contaminate them further.

Lola Tampons offer organic cotton tampons with plastic-free applicators as the optimal option. Gynecologist-recommended, they use only 100% certified organic cotton from LOLA which has also proven itself a leader in activism by helping Period Equity end the tampon tax.
