    I recommend cloth pads. As a a transgender man, I used to use disposable pads for my period. It was horrible and I later found cloth pads to be chemical-free, easy to clean in the laundry machines, and easy to take care of when it comes to storing them. That is why I recommend cloth pads. Also, they are free from toxins.

    Stopped using tampons. Used them all my life. Saw some vids on women that almost died using them. I finally just made the choice to use pads. Even though it's kind of annoying it's better for you. Also been meaning to try the period panties but they make them a little expensive, but I def want to try them out.

    I forgot to mention that nothing we do will be truly safe because I heard that there were forever chemicals and heavy metals in period panties as well.
    I highly recommend watching the video by Dr. Jennifer Lincoln about toxic chemical exposure in pants and tampons. She does a pretty thorough job of explaining the data..

    Menstrual cups and discs are great alternatives. Personally, I'm using a lily cup and I love it. The risk of getting TSS is almost non existent and they can last for years.

    Period underwear is a great option! its the best out there in my opinion! it is sustainable and more expensive up front but SO worth every penny! Everie woman is a good brand too!

    Unfortunately, sanitary pads are made from the same material as tampons and pads and tampons are the most convenient option for most people.
    I’ve considered a menstrual, but I don’t know if it’s practical for me to clean and store it correctly as a blind person.
    Thankfully, I’m not afraid and I’m feeling great so far
    I think the toxic metal exposure mainly comes from the cotton crap and the soil that it’s grown in as well as proprietary ingredients that the manufacturer adds. I think that strict regulations needed and we need to hold these companies accountable just like we do for manufacturers who produce food..

    She ⬆️ almost died from tampon. I personally don’t use tampons but even pads have harsh chemicals. I use the organic pads but I’m afraid that even the organic ones aren’t as organic as we think they are but they’re a better choice.
