- Our tampons (and our main overall product range) are certified to the Global Organic Textiles Standard (GOTS), worldwide leading textile processing standard for organic fibers, including ecological and social criteria, backed up by independent third-party certification of the entire supply chain.

- GOTS has strict regulations for the presence of chemical substances that could pose a potential health and safety risk. It sets limit values for several chemicals, including heavy metals.

- DeoDoc has been relying on third party testing to analyze raw cotton fibers for heavy metals for more than five years. The results obtained hereby comply with GOTS limit values.

- Recent batches of finished products (non-applicator tampons & cardboard applicator tampons) have been tested by an external laboratory for the presence of heavy metals. The results show full compliance with GOTS limit values.

How to use

Remove the tampon from its wrapper. Hold both ends of the applicator and gently twist to break the notch. Place your thumb and your middle finger on the ribbed part of the applicator. The index finger is placed on the base of the applicator. With the other hand, gently open the vaginal opening. Insert the applicator 1-2 centimeters (0.5 - 1 inch) into the vagina while holding the ribbed part firmly. Push the applicator base with your index finger until it stops (works like a syringe). The tampon is now in place and you can gently remove the applicator.

Doctor's Corner

"Studies show that 15% of women’s OB/GYN visits are due to irritation caused by menstruation care products. The primary cause being tampons produced from synthetic fibers and plastic. These fibers can shed, leaving fiber residue inside of your vagina that can cause irritation. As doctors, we recommend 100% organic cotton tampons; however, many organic cotton tampons still shed, so we created our own. DeoDoc’s 100% organic cotton tampons do not shed due to a special 100% cotton netting surrounding the tampon to ensure complete safety for your vagina and an irritation-free period."
