Why I Use Organic Tampons and Pads

Let’s have some feminine talk today.

Today I wanted to get a bit personal and talk about something that I think is important and as women, is worth sharing and discussing. Let’s talk about periods. I won’t make this super long, but since I share with you products I use for skin-care, beauty, makeup etc. I thought, why not share the products I use every month for my period? After all, we are so careful with what we put on our skin and our face, we should be wise also when it comes to what we use during that time of the month, especially if we are putting it inside our bodies. Personally, I use and always recommend women to buy organic tampons and pads. Maybe nothing will happen to you if you use conventional tampons and pads, but I honestly recommend organic products and I personally will never go back.

Did you know 70 percent of American women use tampons to manage their periods—and the average woman will use between 11,000 and 16,000 in her lifetime? And how often do women stop to think about that they are putting in their bodies when they buy tampons? There are so many known and unknown chemicals found in conventional pads and tampons that are quite alarming. Most tampons and pads are bleached with chlorine to make them white, which leads to a toxic byproduct called dioxin, which is linked to cancer as it’s a known carcinogen and endometriosis. The dangerous ingredients used in many tampons are linked to serious health problems like cancer, birth defects, infertility, vaginal dryness, and hormone disruption. And of course, you might have heard of TSS, or Toxic Shock Syndrome, which is really scary and is caused by the chemicals in conventional tampons if you leave it on for too long. Now, you might use conventional tampons and you might never suffer from any of this, but, I prefer to be on the safe side.

Personally, organic cotton is the way to go for pads and tampons. They don’t contain  polyester, dyes, fragrances,  or other synthetic ingredients found in conventional sanitary products. Also organic cotton is better for the environment!  Most organic feminine products are biodegradable and hypoallergenic! Ok well, I didn’t want to make this super long but to end this post, I will leave links to some of the organic feminine products I use and honestly recommend:

  • Lola- I currently use Lola and I love it because it’s a subscription and I never have to worry about going out to buy tampons. Seriously, it’s a time saver and also because I used to always forget to buy and would never have any when I would get my period. Now, I am always stocked.
  • Target Organic Tampons These are just some random organic tampons I once got at Target. If you look, you will find organic tampons almost anywhere!
  • Honest– I love everything Honest and I use their tampons and liners all the time.

Hoy quería tener una plática un poco más personal y hablar sobre algo que creo que es importante y, como mujeres, vale la pena compartir. Hablemos de nuestros períodos. No me quiero meter mucho el tema, pero dado que comparto con ustedes productos que uso para el la piel, la belleza, el maquillaje, etc. pensé, ¿por qué no compartir los productos que uso todos los meses para la regla? Somos muy cuidadosos con lo que nos ponemos en la piel y en nuestra cara, y también deberíamos saber que es lo que estamos usando durante esa época del mes, especialmente si lo estamos metiendo a nuestros cuerpos. Personalmente, yo uso y siempre recomiendo a las mujeres que compren tampones y kotex orgánicos. Tal vez no te pase nada si usas productos femeninos convencionales, pero sinceramente recomiendo productos orgánicos.

¿Sabían que el 70% de las mujeres estadounidenses usan tampones durante sus períodos, y una mujer de promedio usará entre 11,000 y 16,000 en toda su vida? ¿Y con qué frecuencia las mujeres se detienen a pensar en lo que están poniendo en sus cuerpos cuando compran tampones? Hay muchos productos químicos conocidos y desconocidos que se encuentran en los kotex y tampones convencionales que son bastante alarmantes. La mayoría están blanqueados con cloro para que queden blancos, lo que conduce un subproducto tóxico llamado dioxina, que está relacionado con el cáncer, ya que es un carcinógeno conocido, y la endometriosis. Los ingredientes peligrosos utilizados en muchos tampones están relacionados con problemas de salud graves como cáncer, defectos de nacimiento, infertilidad, sequedad vaginal y trastornos hormonales. Y, por supuesto, es posible que hayan oído hablar de TSS o el síndrome de shock tóxico, que es muy peligroso y que es causado por los químicos en los tampones convencionales si te los dejas adentro demasiado tiempo. Ahora, puede que uses tampones convencionales y que nunca te pase nada, pero prefiero evitar la posibilidad.

En mi opinión, basado en todo lo que he leído, el algodón orgánico es la mejor opción si usas kotex o tampones. No contienen poliéster, colorantes, fragancias u otros ingredientes sintéticos que se encuentran en productos sanitarios convencionales. ¡También el algodón orgánico es mejor para el medioambiente! ¡La mayoría de los productos femeninos orgánicos son biodegradables e hipoalergénicos! En fin, no quería hacer esto muy largo, pero para finalizar este post, dejaré enlaces a algunos de los productos orgánicos femeninos que uso y honestamente recomiendo:

Lola- Actualmente uso Lola y me encanta porque es una suscripción y nunca tengo que preocuparme por salir a comprar tampones. En serio, me ahorra tiempo y antes siempre me olvidaba comprar y nunca tenía nada a la mano cuando me bajaba. 

Target- Estos son solo algunos tampones orgánicos que una vez compre en Target. Si buscas, ¡encontrarás tampones orgánicos en casi cualquier lugar!

Honest- Me encanta todo de la marca Honest y uso sus tampones y los “liners” de diario todo el tiempo.
