Menstrual Myths Really Cramp Our Style! The Truth About Periods, Tampons, and Pads: Part 2
Podcast: Unbiased SciencePublished On: Wed Jun 29 2022
Description: Sponsored by Tampax and Always. On this episode of the podcast, we are BACK to tackle more period and period product myths! We kick things off with a continuation of our discussion of organic cotton versus conventional cotton period products (and how there is no difference in safety profile of the cotton). We talk about how both organic and conventional cotton tampons are made and the elemental chlorine-free purification process, and why that means tampon manufacturing today would never produce dioxins as a result. We discuss the high-quality standards that are adhered to during manufacturing to ensure tampons are safe for use. Next, we talk about period blood and how it is not dirty or unhygienic! That being said, it's not a good idea to rub menstrual blood on your face. We wrap things up with a discussion of the pros and cons of different available period products. Remember, all options are great-- you just need to choose the product that works best for you and your body. This is our last episode of season 2, and you don't want to miss it!
