Growing up involves discovering our own bodies. Periods are an ordinary fact of life for girls. But did you know that there are special pads that can keep you healthy and help take care of our planet at the same time?
These are special pads which are known as organic pads. They are created from natural stuff from plants like fluffy cotton. Regular pads have a lot of chemicals that can be harmful to your body. These chemicals can make you feel bad, or even sick. But organic pads are not the same!
Wearing organic pads helps you feel good. They're so soft and comfortable. There are no rough, scratchy materials that can cause itching or discomfort. Made with clean ingredients and designed with love, they make it easy to be happy and relaxed on your period.

That means they remain buried in the ground for a long, long time and can damage the environment. But organic pads decompose fast and are not harmful to the environment. Using them is one way to keep our planet clean and healthy.
Opting for these pads is a surefire method for self-care. They don’t have the bad chemicals that can make you sick.” Instead, they are crafted from natural things that grow wild, such as soft plants. That means they’re safe for your body and soft on your skin.

This is sometimes called making "mindful" choices. It is this sense of careful use of things and their effect on you and on the world around you. So it is smart and responsible of you to care about your health and the earth by using organic pads.
