    Way to take that next baby step to green!! Its hard enough to make changes, but to do so for something that’s already not the most comfortable thing to deal with in the first place, well, that’s big. Maybe in a year you’ll have stepped so far out of the tampon box that you’ll be joining us crazy gals using our Keeper/Diva Cups and reusable cloth pads. ;D

    I started using Seventh Generation Tampons about two years ago and haven’t turned back. They work great and I feel good knowing that they are chlorine free.

    Yes, I have to admit I’d be a bit hesitant, but why not give them a try. I don’t discuss things like that on the internet with practical strangers but just maybe…I’m just sayin’. :-)

    Yay, congrats on the baby green steps! I am a big fan of the Seventh Generation products. I have yet to go even crunchier in this regard, but maybe, just maybe..

    My life is so much better since I started using my diva cup. Tampons always left me feeling rubbed raw, and I never have that problem with my diva cup. It’s good to know that there is a good option if I ever leave my diva cup behind while traveling though!

    I have to agree with AZD dog Mom and Molly that menstrual cups are the way forward. I have been using mine for 5 years and I love it. Whether it be a Keeper, a Diva Cup or a Mooncup the cost is a one-off expense and you are buying something which produces NO WASTE and doesn’t interfere with your body at all.

    Very best of all there is NO STRING!!!!!! My vagina is happier with the Mooncup and my labia are happier without a string.

    I have several friends who have converted to a cup after year of using tampons and are very happy that they did. Give one a try – you have nothing to lose!

    Good One Sommer,

    That’s definitely how you convert a family member (inside and out). Since my days of “visits from the hood” aren’t slowing anytime soon, I’m going to look for this item the next time I purchase product. I’m still not ready to go the cup route and these will be a nice move to maybe eventually giving the cup a try.

    I started using organic tampons 6 months ago and I love the experience. It feels very comfortable – I am not sure if this is due to the fact that they are 100% cotton or the fact that the brand I am using is shaped in such a way that it expands lenthwise when moist not in the width. I acquired my first pack from wellbasics online store since not many stores in Canada carry them out in the open yet. And the concept of the organic materials used contributes to the satisfaction in the light of health benefits. Luv it!
