So this is a pretty niche product, but I thought, what the hey, if someone was a true OzBargainer they wouldn't be grossed out by this stuff if it would save some cash in the long run.

I haven't tried these myself so can't tell you how comfortable / effective they are, but here's one person's review: https://mademoiselleorganic.com/2016/05/26/hannahpad-review-…

They are made of organic cotton and have a water resistant backing. They last 2-3 years (some people claim up to 5) and from what I can tell, washing them isn't that time consuming - check out Hannahpad's FAQ section. Personally I hate all the plastic with disposables so I'm willing to give these a try.

$6.95 shipping or free if order >$100.

Sale on until tonight 11:59pm AEST Wed 27/12.

    Initially I was grossed out…but I have been changing nappies for years. So a sea of red shouldn't faze me.

    Thanks.

    Good feedback from the reviews:

    I was skeptical at first so decided to buy one pad to try.. I was absolutely blown away. The comfort is freakin AMAZING, didn't experience any rashes you generally get from disposable pads, no leaks (even while doing yoga), no odd smells like you get when wearing a disposable pad for more than 2 hours, and i soaked and washed it and it looked brand new again. Incredibly happy I have made the switch, wish i had years ago.

    YAY! My Hannahpads are arrived this morning, after a week of trying to be patient I have never been so excited about something so organic and healthy for my body and also the planet. I look forward to trying these out. I love the colours chosen, I love touching them as they are so soft. Despite troubles with biosecurity I'm so excited to try these out and I'm sure I'm going to love them,
    EDIT—-
    Ok so I have warn my Hannahpads through two periods (and currently) since being off the deep injection. Over the last couple of years I have struggled with my periods because I have endometriosis which causes me to have very painful cramps and vomiting. It's so amazing because now I can do anything (YAY!!!) during this time as this product has reduced my cramping. So so happy! Thank you!!

      how can these reduce menstrual cramps? :/

        Yeah those claims are bogus. Physiologically impossible…

      No one ever used a sanitary pad for stopping diarrhea.

    'Reusable Sanitary Pads'

    Anything more gross than this?

    This is one way to avoid the GST on sanitary pads and tampons…

  • Taita on 27/12/2017 - 13:19

    A moon cup would be better and more convinient.

    • eve on 27/12/2017 - 16:31

      A menstrual cup is a great alternative for those who prefer tampons

      • diamondd on 27/12/2017 - 16:46

        I would have thought they'd be a much better option in general - hard to imagine these reusable pads being as hygienic as a cup, but I guess they must have dotted the i's.

    • cazorp on 27/12/2017 - 17:08

      I guess it comes down to personal preference - I've tried a cup but didn't find it comfortable or easy to use.

    This is the kind of thing that hippy green-left antivaxxers would use.

      I'd just like to reduce landfill and save some money - I'm certainly not anti-vax etc. I get that these products are sometimes associated with people who have some crazy ideas but at the same time, it is just a product and should be judged on its merits.

      • Pharming on 27/12/2017 - 16:34

        Good reply! I am glad you are pro-vax :)

      I think the environmentally conscious aspect is true. But for the rest of it - I'm a medical doctor who uses reusable pads/menstrual cup. And my bub has reusable nappies. Plus because of her pro-vax mumma, is getting $1000 worth of non-scheduled vaccines including meningococcal acwy, menningococcal b, extra varicella and MMR and flu jabs. Good thing I'm saving money by using reusables.

      • Pharming on 27/12/2017 - 16:35

        If you are a Doctor, surely a pharmacist friend could help you out by reducing that $1000+ bill?

          Hmm.. I don't have any close friends in community pharmacy so I would feel too awkward to ask… Are you a pharmacist?

        • Pharming on 29/12/2017 - 13:07

          @eve: fair enough

          Yes I sure am. Can't swing a cat without hitting a pharmacist these days hahaha

    Missed opportunity:

    So this is a pretty niche product, but I thought, what the hey, if someone was a true OzBargainer they wouldn't be grossed out by this stuff if it would save some "Gash" in the long run.
