Do GladRags work for women with vulvodynia, vaginitis or allergies?
Yes! We’ve sold many GladRags to women dealing with these conditions who find the pads helpful during their cycles. Many women have noticed that tampons and disposable pads can be a source of vaginal irritation, and most are unaware that disposable products are highly processed and may contain chemicals to “keep you dry” or cover up odor. Dioxin, a carcinogenic by-product of the chemical bleaching process in disposables, is less of a risk today, though we feel concern is warranted. In the past, dioxin has been linked to causing both cancer and endometriosis. Vaginal irritation, allergies, burning, itching, frequent yeast infections, can all be the result of, or exacerbated by, disposables. Please visit our vulvodynia page for more info.
