This is scary – a study done in Argentina earlier this year found that 85% of tampons, cotton, and other hygiene products contain traces of glyphosate (Roundup). Another 62% tested positive for its environmental metabolite AMPA, which has been found to potentially be 1,000 times more toxic in the body. Gauze samples tested positive 100% of the time.

This means that when you put these cotton products in your ears, broken skin and even inside your body’s most sensitive places, you are bound to absorb those toxic metabolites.







The potential health implications from glyphosate (Roundup) are mounting, and it’s been linked to cancer by the World Health Organization. And this is what millions of women are exposing themselves unknowingly to every day.

Monsanto’s Roundup is the world’s most popular weed killer and most of the cotton in countries like the US and Argentina use Roundup-resistant GM cotton that is sprayed with Roundup. This is also the case with much of the corn and soy we consume.

This means that traces of this toxic herbicide can be found in our food and, now we know, feminine hygiene products — even though the WHO found it to be a “probable carcinogen” (meaning that it was found carcinogenic in animal studies).

In fact, many countries like France, Colombia, and Sri Lanka have placed restrictions on glyphosate to protect both human and wildlife health. Now it’s time for Procter & Gamble to commit to sourcing glyphosate-free cotton for hygiene products like Tampax and Always.

It’s not necessary. This is avoidable.





What you can do:

1) SumOfUs petition here requesting Procter & Gamble (Makers of Tampax and Always) stop sourcing cotton sprayed with glyphosate for hygiene products: https://community.sumofus.org/petitions/what-is-monsanto-s-carcinogenic-herbicide-doing-in-tampons/

2) Investigate alternative feminine hygiene products such as Yoni (no affiliation) that are declared to be free of these toxins: “Yoni tampons, pads and panty liners are made from organic cotton, do not contain plastics or other synthetics, no chlorine bleach and no traces of pesticides. In addition, they are biodegradable and hence environmentally friendlier.” https://yoni.care/en/
