Saalt's Sustainable Revolution: Cutting Plastic Waste with Reusable Period Essentials

By

Every period contributes to a growing plastic problem—one that most of us never see. Disposable pads, tampons, liners, and their wrappers add up to billions of pieces of waste each year, much of which lingers in landfills and oceans for centuries. A single pad can take up to 800 years to break down, and synthetic fibers from disposables shed microplastics into waterways, harming ecosystems and returning to us through the food chain. It’s an environmental loop we can no longer afford to ignore.

When to begin mammograms is a key decision for managing breast health. Early breast cancer detection increases the chances of effective treatment, and understanding when to start screening is vital. A mammogram is an X-ray designed to detect early signs of breast cancer, often before any symptoms appear. The procedure involves compressing the breast between two plates to capture images, which doctors analyze for potential issues. Mammogram guidelines suggest discussing screenings with your doctor between ages 40-49 to determine the right time based on personal health and risk factors. For women 50-74, biennial mammograms are recommended, with some opting for yearly screenings for added reassurance.

In addition to screenings, daily comfort plays an essential role in overall health. Wearing the right bra or bralette can provide support and confidence. Con...

Starting your period should be a fun and exciting transition, so why shouldn’t your go-to period pants reflect this? These leakproof underwear options can replace 3-4 regular tampons or 2-3 regular pads, saving more room in your backpack for what really matters–snacks. For most teens, one pair should last all day at school. However, if you have a heavier flow, consider pairing leakproof panties with a tampon, menstrual cup, or menstrual disc . Learn: What is ...
