Rashes and irritation are not uncommon when wearing sanitary pads. As pads go through an extensive chemical treatment to become absorbent when in contact with the skin can trigger allergic reactions. Fortunately, while you cannot opt out of your period, you can choose the pads that can keep you truly protected and safe.

Most sanitary pads emit dioxins which can be the cause of many hormonal issues or problems in the reproductive and immune system. Organic cotton pads, on the other hand, are free from pesticides, dioxins, and chlorine. Having proved that organic cotton reduces the onset of allergies these pads are sure to keep you healthy during your period.
Traditional sanitary pads include plastic and chemicals linked to hormone imbalance and mood swings. They're also bleached, leaving dioxides linked to endometriosis. In contrast, organic cotton means the absence of toxic materials around your intimate area.
Bamboo is a sustainable material; however, as its fibres are not highly absorbent, manufacturers utilise wood pulp to enhance it. On the contrary, organic cotton doesn’t require industrial processing to convert it to fabric, and as a result, it outperforms bamboo.
Cotton is a sustainable resource, but if not naturally cultivated it can contain chemicals such as fertilisers, pesticides or even transgenic technology. Organic cotton is grown without harmful chemicals or genetically engineered substances. This is what makes it safe for your body and your healthiest option.
Organic cotton top sheet pads mean that the only part that is organic, is the one that touches your skin. When buying cotton pads you should be mindful as brands that indicate that they have organic cotton topsheet might mean that they are also using artificial and probably harmful materials
