“Tampon companies underestimate the effects of dioxin. And this is primarily because we’re not talking about a single tampon exposure. We are talking about thousands of tampons. Dioxin is one of the most dangerous chemicals on the planet. Even just a small amount can cause damage. So while chlorine bleach is definitely safer than other bleaches, we can’t assume that it is safe given the large amount of tampons women use over their lifetime. So while a single exposure, or even a handful of exposures may not be harmful, repeated exposure is problematic—plus, dioxin can accumulate over time to reach harmful levels.” - Dr Maggie Ney
