Why Use Washable Pads?
EARTH FRIENDLY
In North America, we throw away over 20 billion disposable menstrual pads and
tampons annually - a considerably larger volume than babies disposable diapers!
The production of disposable menstrual pads and tampons releases dioxins and
other toxic chemicals into our rivers, lakes and oceans.
Whether you use Many Moons washable menstrual pads all the time, while at home
or only at night, it will make a difference to the amount of garbage and toxins
going into our environment.
BODY FRIENDLY
Many Moons are safer for
you and the environment. Most women are unaware of the variety of chemicals
(including dioxins) we are putting next to and into our bodies with the use
of disposable menstruation products. Research has linked these chemicals to
birth defects, reproductive disorders, infertility, depressed immunity, and
cancer. As well, toxic shock syndrome continues to cause serious illness and
death, and is primarily a result of tampon use.
By choosing to use washable cloth menstrual pads, women can substantially reduce
their exposure to these harmful toxins.
...they are very soft and non-irritating and the cotton feels nice against my skin. Many Moons are super absorbent, much better than the disposable kind. - Patty
FOR WOMEN
In just 40 years, the marketers of disposable menstruation products have convinced
women in North America that chlorine bleached disposable pads and tampons are
the only option. They are wrong! Most women outside of North America and Europe
continue to use cloth menstrual pads - just as our grandmothers did. Switching
to Many Moons encourages a healthier attitude about our bodies and menstruation.
