Question: How do you make your own reusable tampons!?
Women have doing doing this for thousands of years, so I want to make my own reusable tampons if possible, but menstrual pads will do fine!. I want to make them out of cloth on the outside with some kind of thick pad filling in the inside, that I am able to wash and use again!. I can sew fine so I preferably like to make them myself!. Does any one have any tips or tricks!? Have you made your own!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think it's a good question!. I've tried to buy the organic tampons at the health food store, they are expensive!. I've read about the rayon and dioxin in tampons, I'd much rather have a 100% natural cotton!. I like the baby sock idea mentioned above!. My grandma told me they used cotton rags back in the early 1900's!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Reusable Tampons:
Ready to give up disposable paper tampons, but not ready to give up their convenience and to switch to cloth pads!? For an inexpensive solution, here's a Frugal Mom Tip!
Buy 6 pair (or more) of 100% cotton white baby socks!. Wash (and dry) three times with a natural, mild soap - rinsing well!. At your next period, simply roll up one baby sock into a tight roll, and insert as you would a paper tampon!. If you need more absorbency, use two baby socks rolled up!.
Replace it with the next baby sock as needed!. Rinse the used one out well, and store dry until washday!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have heard that women made underwear with a built in pad in the past with cotton as filling!. All they had to do was was them and hang them dry!. As for tampons, I don't think you could make homemade ones!. They would probably be poorly made and reusing them would be very unhygienic!. My question is, why can't you just buy some pads or tampons at the store!? It would be so much more convenient!. They really aren't expensive either!. Besides, theres always a risk of infection, and things would sure be troublesome then!Www@Answer-Health@Com
