Hi there,
Let's talk periods which I know we do ALOT but specifically, let's talk about whether it's finally time to ditch the tampons.
Now, we're not here to tell you what to do with your own body - you do you. But we did want to share some genuinely interesting (and occasionally eyebrow-raising) stuff we've pulled together about period pants vs tampons, covering everything from comfort and cost to chemicals and the environment.
Spoiler: a May 2025 report found glyphosate in conventional tampons at 40 times the level permitted in drinking water. Forty times. We'll let that sink in.
The good news? There are options - and for most people, it doesn't have to be all-or-nothing. Lots of us end up mixing and matching depending on the day (period pants at home, something else when out and about). No judgement either way.
Kirstin has written it all up honestly in a
