Spilling the Tea on Natural Tampons

So what’s with all the hype about natural tampons? Can there ever be anything natural about sticking a bunch of cotton up where the sun doesn’t shine?

Okay, so while we can’t actually answer questions about whether or not using tampons is natural, we can tell you why natural tampons matter. Not all tampons are created equal and if you’re like us, you want to know what exactly you’re putting inside your body. There’s nothing more natural than wanting to be picky about what you’re putting in such an intimate place.

What counts as a natural tampon varies a little bit, but most tend to avoid using bleach, dyes, or perfumes. Some use “natural” to indicate that they are made from only organic cotton, or don’t use any synthetic fibers. Some are made to be completely biodegradable, so that your monthly cycles don’t have to be bad for the environment. There’s actually a variety of options, making it easier to find one that suits you best.

Read on to learn about a couple of our favorites!
