i'm sure this has been brought up a million times and i appoligize for wasting your time.

writting a speech for class about menstruation and cultures and menstrual art. i wanted to mention the fack that tampons have no ingredient descriptions and i was wondering if anyone can tell me where i can find the actual ingredients to tampons and pads. i'm lost.

You may want to check out this (http://volatile.squeakyblue.com/img/weebl.gif) site. Also, we have different laws in Canada (and I know there are women from other countries here where the situation may be different from the US) and there may be some sort of list on the boxes. Hopefully someone on the list can check, as I don't use them, I cannot.

Good Luck!

Oh shit! I am so sorry! Ahahaha! Argh! I was writing two responses at once and I sent the wrong one to each. I guess the guy who was looking for a picture of Weebl is really confused as to why I sent him information on tampons :)

Let me get that link for you.

The correct link (http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/consumer/tamponsabs.html)

That is why I said to check with people who live outside of the US where laws are different in regards to ingredients on packages.
