Rael Tampons, Compact Applicator Tampon Made with Organic Cotton - Tampons, Regular Absorbency, BPA-Free, Chlorine Free, Leak Locker Technology (3...

Worked well, also I have issues with tampons and these ones were comfortable to insert and use.

After hearing about TSS (toxic shock syndrome) I stopped using tampons all together, but that makes my period so much harder when I go to work or workout. These helped ease my mind by being fragrance free, cotton, and chlorine free. Of course there's no guarantee of not getting TSS, but this brand has comforted me enough to use them when I need.

I typically like to give all brands a shot - esp those with clean products in mind! I would definitely steer clear of these if you have a heavier flow. I have more medium-to-heavy flow in my first few days and Ive been changing every 1-2hr In addition, I find the applicator extender doesnt always come out easily - you need to squeeze the tampon end tightly to keep the tampon in place. Also, the string gets stuck quite frequently on insertion. Overall, its not the worst tampon Ive ever used and Ill definitely go through the pack I have, but Ill go back to my other preferred clean brand moving forward.

I have been using these tampons for 2 years now. I switched over to them when I discovered the bleach/chemicals found in normal store bought tampons. I can't give a full 5 stars for these even though I continue to use them. I'll start with the pros of this product. PRO: It seems that the bleach and chemicals in the other tampons really caused my cramps to be worse. Every time I used the other brands I could FEEL the tampon, almost like I could feel the inflammation it was causing. The cramps were intense and consistent, which is why I was curious to try an organic tampon. Once I tried the Rael Tampons, all of those feelings have gone away! These are my go-to tampon now! CONS: My main reason for only 4 stars is that the absorbency of these are poor. Compared to other brands, I would confidently say that the "Regular" are similar to a "Light", and the "Super" are similar to "Regular". Thankfully I typically do not have a heavy flow, but if you're someone that does, you'll have to change these frequently to avoid leaking.

I buy these for both myself and my daughter! It is great to know that you are not exposing your self to any unnecessary chemicals just to take care of your self monthly. I will keep buying this brand from now on!
