I recently discovered that period products can sometimes set off the TSAās body scanner machines, but thereās no info about it anywhere. A TSA rep I spoke with said pads and pantyliners are likely to flag as anomalies in the machine, prompting uncomfortable searches... š§µ

To all the people complaining that Always pads have ātoxicā chemicals. That is a claim that has never been proven. Ever. It does conveniently help more expensive so called āorganicā brands. 1/4

Thank you for shedding light on this issue!!!!! Itās so needed. If your product is good thereās no reason to make up false claims. Do you know why p&g hasnāt put a stop to these myths?
I find it very Trumpian for an āorganicā menstrual product company to claim āconventionalā products have ātoxinsā with no supporting data. That is a lie. I always wonder if someone is lying about one thing, what else are they lying about?
