  1. Lola • mylola.com
    Lola offers customized assortments of tam-
    pons, pads, and liners made with organic
    cotton and without toxins, dyes, or synthet-
    ics. You can choose tampons with BPA-free
    compact applicators or cardboard applicators
    with a curved tip. Tailor your subscription
    with a variety of items to meet your specific
    needs. Lola partners with the nonprofit initia-
    tives Support the Girls, Simply the Basics, and
    Distributing Dignity to donate feminine care
    products to homeless shelters and low-income
    women and girls across the US.

  2. The Flex Company • flexfits.com
    Flex is a tampon alternative that lasts up to
    12 hours. This disposable menstrual disc is
    made from a medical-grade polymer blend
    without latex, silicone, BPA, or phthalates. Its
    shape sits in the vaginal canal differently from
    tampons or cups, and one of its advantages is
    that you can wear it for mess-free period sex.
    Available by subscription.
    6. Natracare • natracare.com
    In 1989, Natracare founder Susie Hewson
    watched a documentary that revealed the
    dangers of dioxin pollution from the chlorine
    bleaching of paper and pulp products, includ-
    ing those found in feminine hygiene products.
    This inspired Natracare’s commitment to
    selling certified organic tampons and chlorine-
    free pads and panty liners. Natracare offers
    pads, tampons, and liners with different levels
    of absorbency; their product line has expanded
    to include maternity and incontinence items, as
    well as wipes.
    7. OI: Organic Initiative • oi4me.com/us
    Based in New Zealand, made in Europe, and
    sold around the world, OI values transparency,
    honesty, and integrity. The boxes proudly
    declare slogans such as “Zero Waste, Period”
    (for the menstrual cups), “Revolution in a
    Box” and “Pure Inside, Nothing to Hide.” OI’s
    products include tampons (with and without
    applicators), pads, liners, and menstrual cups.
    They are committed to social responsibility in
    all of their practices, including manufacturing
    and packaging. Subscriptions are available.
    8. She. • sheisorganic.com
    Three sisters: Lauren Carletta (registered
    nurse), Kim Lambert (doctor of physical ther-
    apy), and Lindsay Aschtiani (certified financial
    planner) started their company to offer the
    products they wanted to buy. What are they?
    Organic cotton tampons with an ultra-thin
    BPA-free applicator. Choose a box of 18 or 32
    tampons in sizes little, regular, and super to be
    delivered to your door monthly.
