1. Why Organic Cotton washable postpartum/menstrual pads?

It is reported that various chemicals including dioxin have been found in almost every major brand of menstrual pads and tampons. Dioxin is a known carcinogen and has been linked to cervical cancer, breast cancer, endometriosis, and immune system suppression, even if the exposure is small. In addition, the plastic and glue backing on disposable pads reduces air circulation and creates a stagnant environment in which some bacteria thrive. This can cause vaginal irritation and yeast infection. Sckoon Pads are made of 100% certified Egyptian organic cotton; the softest, most absorbent and breathable cotton in the world. They are comfortable and irritant free. Our Organic Night Pads are designed for Postpartum and heavy flows - they also provide extra cushion for the postpartum sore parts .

Why Organic Cotton?
  • To make one Non-Organic Cotton Pad Set, it takes about one-third of a pound of chemicals, such as chlorine, pesticides, dioxins, and heavy metals including chromium to fix colors, which is considered dangerous to people, wildlife and damaging to the earth.
  • Pesticides contained in disposable pads and tampons have been linked to birth defects, infertility, breast cancer, sterility, and respiratory problems.
  • According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, more than 53 million pounds of pesticides and 1.6 billion pounds of synthetics were used in cotton production in 1996. Cotton, which constitutes 3% of the world cropland, uses about 23% of the worldNs insecticides to grow.
