Why Use Sea Pearls^™?

For your Health   
Our Sea Pearls Natural Sea Sponge tampons do not contain any Dioxin or synthetic fibers. Research has determined that there are health risks associated with conventional tampon usage. These risks are related to the use of Dioxin, a by-product of the tampon fibers bleaching process, and to the use of rayon and other synthetic fibers known for their absorbency in tampons. These fibers are particularly harmful because they are worn internally for periods of time in one of the most absorbent parts of a woman's body.

Risk associated diseases related to Dioxin exposure and synthetic fibers are endometriosis, ovarian, cervical, and breast cancers, immune system deficiencies, pelvic inflammatory diseases, reduced fertility (in women and their partners), and Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) Men may be at risk for low sperm count, prostate problems, and testicular cancer due to the contact with fibers and chemical residue left behind in the vagina.

For Comfort and Convenience
Sea Pearls Sea Sponge Tampons are very comfortable, soft, and textured much like the vaginal wall. Sea Pearls can be custom trimmed to fit your unique form, so women do not even feel them. Sponges are naturally very absorbent, and some women even use them during intercourse, with or without a spermicide of their choice, for contraception.

Sea Pearls are convenient - no more running to the store for emergency tampons. Compared to the cost of conventional single use tampons, our reusable Sea Pearls save you money and you will never again need to worry about polluting the environment with used feminine hygiene products.

For the Earth
The average woman uses nearly 17,000 disposable pads and tampons (about 600 pounds) throughout her lifetime menstrual cycle. In North America alone, an estimated 20 billion bleached pads and tampons end up in our sewage systems each year. Sea Pearls Sea Sponge Tampons are sustainably harvested and are reusable for up to 6 months or more. They can also be recycled after use!
