Menstrual sponges

Woman-Kind menstrual sponges are Kind to Women.

They are soft and gentle to use
They do not dry and abrade the vagina as tampons often do
They are easy to clean, dry and maintain
They are easy to dispose of at the end of their life-cycle
They are easy on the conscience as they are a truly green product
They are affordable and will reduce the overall cost of your menstrual cycles substantially
They put the natural back into your menstrual cycle

Woman-Kind menstrual sponges come packaged in a biodegradable Eco-plastic bag by Green Home with an information sheet about the history, usage and safety of menstrual sponges for the customer.

Woman-Kind menstrual sponges can be used for a few menstrual cycles (3-6 cycles) making them a more affordable option for Women.

Woman-Kind menstrual sponges are Kind to the Planet.
They are a sustainably harvested natural resource
Unlike manufactured tampons and other products like silicone moon cups, producing them does not involve industrialized production
Cleaning the sponge uses only warm water during the cycle, and between cycles, natural and non-polluting lavender oil or vinegar can be used to disinfect them
After repeated use, the sponges break down naturally without polluting the water supply or landfill
Fact: Tampons can take up to 5 years to biodegrade, while sanitary towels can take up to 500 years to biodegrade.
For women who prefer internal products for their menses, based on our own experience and use, Woman-Kind menstrual sponges are The best alternative to all existing sanitary products available in South Africa – for women and for the planet.
For Women who prefer to use external menstrual products, we offer washable, re-usable pads made of 100% cotton. The pads have wings that clip onto the panty with a press-stud. They are made in our Fair Trade workshop near Kommetjie, Cape Town.
