Fact 2: We Should Be Better to Our Bodies!
Commercial menstrual products have been linked to far too harmful ingredients. Some containing dangerous toxins and even run the risk of causing Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS). Some are made out of materials that may not be the best for us. Certain tampons contain rayon, which is derived from wood pulp and is known to leave behind microfibers that can lead to various vaginal complications including infections. When choosing products for one of the most absorbent parts of our bodies, why take the risk? Care underwear is risk-free!
Fact 3: We Should Be Better to Our Earth!
It has been estimated that a menstruator will go through over 11,000 disposable menstrual products in the years they have a period. Just picture the heaping pile of plastic applicators and packaging being produced for this. With Cares underwear you can have a zero-waste cycle! Not only are reusable products better for the environment, they are hugely beneficial for your wallet. A menstruator will spend nearly $10,000 in their lifetime on menstrual products, not including having to replace countless stained pairs of underwear!
