"Toxic arsenic and lead commonly found in tampons: landmark study" - Reda Wigle, NY Post, 05JUL2024
>They found metals in all types of tampons, though concentrations varied by where the tampons were purchased (US vs. EU/UK), organic vs. nonorganic and generic vs. name-brand. Lead concentrations were higher in nonorganic tampons, while arsenic was greater in organic tampons.
>Tampons are a particularly worrisome source of chemical exposure because the skin of the vagina has a higher potential for absorption than skin elsewhere else on the body.
>As the study notes, “Vaginally absorbed chemicals do not undergo first-pass metabolism and detoxification via the liver and directly enter systemic circulation.”
>The US Food and Drug Administration classifies tampons as medical devices, but the agency has said it “does not clear or approve individual materials that are used in the fabrication of medical devices.”
