You've been putting a lot of effort into keeping yourself fit, especially for wearing your favorite summer clothing, but...this time of the month has come. You’ve been exercising and eating healthy, but the scale just threw you a curve ball, clocking in at five more pounds than last week. And your favorite shorts just won‘t button—again. You know they fit last week though!

You’ve just had your baby and you want to start getting back in shape. But what exercises can you do? Having a baby is hard work, and trying to get...

When looking to relieve your PMS, you‘ll find an overabundance of pharmaceutical and natural remedies that promise to help ease the discomfort. From hormone pills to acupuncture, health experts have been searching for a PMS cure for years. In the process, they have come up with some truly effective remedies.

After you start your period, you’ll keep having discharge during your cycle. Usually, it will be thick and sticky right after your period, clear and watery in the middle of your cycle, and then thick and sticky again right before your next period.

Just because you’ve been getting a period every month since puberty doesn’t mean you have it all figured out. ..

With the summer nearly here, many of us have started to enjoy exercising in the open air. While regular exercise has many health benefits, what’s lesser known, however, are the effects exercise has on our skin.

Have you ever wondered how many babies in the United States are delivered by Cesarean section? In the recent ten years, the number of American women who have preferred to have a C-section over natural vaginal birth has grown significantly and still keeps growing with each year.

As you reach middle age, your body will go through a major life change, where it transforms from being fertile to infertile by quitting the menstruation process. This major life change can take from several months to several years, and the completion of the process is known as menopause. 

 

Just think of it! Immediately after delivery, your body launches the process of returning to its pre-pregnancy state.

With spring coming and outdoor swimming season approaching, some of our customers have asked us whether or not we produce sanitary pads they could use while swimming. The answer is, no one does. Actually, completely safe waterproof sanitary pads for swimming don’t exist!

When your hormones get out of whack at PMS, the rest of your health responds immediately.

What adds to the PMS stress is that we are constantly surrounded by elements that are threatening our hormonal balance: think about environmental toxins, prescription medications, our frequent lack of sleep and a variety of trying situations we face throughout the day. 

Menstruation probably isn't the time of the month you're looking forward to, right? One typically unpleasant thing about it – in addition to cramps, bloating and mood swings – may be that rather peculiar odor. We bet you've wondered why you get it at least once in your menstrual history. 

 

If you‘ve ever shared the details of your period with a close friend or two, you’ve probably noticed that they may be quite different in each of us.

There is a wide range rather than a single pattern in what is "normal" for periods: they can take from 3 to 10 days, and happen every 3 to 6 weeks. In each of us individually, period fluctuations can be the effect of age, stress, diet, exercise, and other medical conditions. 

It’s that time of the month again. You‘re doubled in menstrual cramps that just won‘t cease. Have you ever considered relieving them naturally instead of using medications?

Recently, we got an email from a concerned customer. First, she said she was “in love” with our super-absorbent sanitary pads (yay!). But then she proceeded to express her concern about pantiliners: “I have nothing against your pantiliners in particular, but I’m concerned if wearing pantiliners every day can cause skin irritation or yeast infection. I want to try them, but I’m really not sure if it’s a good idea. It seems that many gynecologists are not big fans of them.”

Periods are uncomfortable and downright painful, but nothing makes your period more irritating as excessive bloating. It’s estimated that about 70 percent of women experience bloating during that time of the month…. Yikes!

Let’s talk about… underwear. What comes to your mind when you’re deciding which pair to wear? Is it the color (go hot pink!)? Style (cheekini, anyone)? Material (silk, please)?
