Gentle day South Africa

“Please listen to my story before saying Gentle Day is expensive…” 💜

One of our customers shared her personal experience after trying different period products over the years.

She explained that she previously used tampons and later period panties, but found the monthly costs adding up. After seeing Gentle Day on social media, she decided to give it a try — although at first she was surprised by the price.

But after using Gentle Day, she says she finally understood the value:
✔ needing fewer pad changes
✔ feeling more comfortable
✔ and experiencing a different level of confidence during her cycle

Every woman’s experience is personal and may differ, but stories like these remind us that comfort, quality, and confidence matter.

Thank you for sharing your journey with us and allowing us to share your experience with others. 💜

This is not just one study.
And it’s not just South Africa.

Around the world, multiple studies have found hormone-disrupting chemicals in sanitary pads and pantyliners.

Let’s think about that…

Every month, for years, we use these products for hours on one of the most absorbent parts of our body — and yet, most women never question what’s inside.

We’ve been told: “The levels are small.”

But small exposure… repeated every single month… over years…
Is that something we should ignore?

Your period is not something unimportant.
It’s part of your health.
Your hormones.
Your body.

And what you use during that time matters more than we’ve been told.

This is not about fear —
This is about awareness and better choices.

Because once you know… you can choose differently.

"Menstrual products are worn directly against highly permeable ge***al and mucosal tissue, which absorbs chemicals more readily than the skin on other parts of the body. Most users rely on pads and liners for several days every month over decades.

The results reveal that menstrual products such as sanitary pads and liners in South Africa are a “significant but overlooked source of toxic exposure”. Although daily doses might seem low, the long-term, repeated contact with sensitive tissues poses cumulative health risks, including reproductive toxicity and cancer." THe Mail & Guardian
