Organic Cotton Regular Tampons Ingredients: Organic cotton core, organic cotton veil, organic cotton thread, cardboard.
Directions:
In the case of night time use, insert a fresh tampon before going to sleep and replace the tampon first thing in the morning. Regardless of when used, day or night, remember to change the tampon every four to eight hours, or more often if needed.
Use the lowest absorbency for the flow as it changes throughout the period.
Alternate between tampons and towels/pads, liners from time to time during your period.
Wash your hands before and after inserting a tampon.
DO NOT FLUSH These Organic Cotton Regular Tampons.

Study:
This is a study that links dioxin, which may be present in conventional tampons, and cervical cancer. From that study: “Endogenous estrogens have dramatic and differential effects on classical endocrine organ and proliferation. Xenoestrogens are environmental estrogens that have endocrine impact, acting as both estrogen agonists and antagonists, but whose effects are not well characterized. In this investigation we sought to delineate effects of xenoestrogens. Using human cervical cancer cells (HeLa cells) as a model, the effects of representative xenoestrogens (Coumestrol-a phytoestrogen, tetrachlorodioxin (TCDD)-a herbicide and DDT-a pesticide) on proliferation, cell cycle, and apoptosis were examined.
These xenoestrogens and estrogen inhibited the proliferation of Hela cells in a dose dependent manner from 20 to 120 nM suggesting, that 17-beta-estrtadiol and xenoestrogens induced cytotoxic effects. Coumestrol produced accumulation of HeLa cells in G2/M phase, and subsequently induced apoptosis. Similar effects were observed in estrogen treated cells. These changes were associated with suppressed bcl-2 protein and augmented Cyclins A and D proteins. DDT and TCDD exposure did not induce apoptosis. These preliminary data taken together, suggest that xenoestrogens have direct, compound-specific effects on HeLa cells. This study further enhances our understanding of environmental modulation of cervical cancer.”
